Living My Best Life: Streamlining Work & Parenting with Smart Home Technology

Samsung employees are the innovators, creators, trailblazers, doers, problem solvers, and changemakers of our organization. They inevitably touch some point in our products’ journey, whether it’s conception, design, development, creation, marketing, customer care, sales, or recycling. If you’re like us, you’re probably wondering what Samsung products are they actually adding to their carts. And, among those, what are the smart home products that they love the most?

For the latest installment of our “Living My Best Life: The Smart Home Edition” series, we sat down with Claudia Santos, Director of Product Marketing for Connected Living. As a busy working mom of two, she relies on technology to serve as her personal assistant, streamlining her daily routines. With her Samsung smart appliances, such as the Dacor French Door and Family Hub 4-Door Flex™ refrigerators, Dacor gas cooking range, and Smart Front Load Washer, Claudia effortlessly coordinates and automates household chores from dawn till dusk.

For example, Claudia uses her Samsung SmartThings Station to charge her Galaxy smartphone overnight. With a simple gesture of picking up her phone when she wakes in the morning, her bedroom lights illuminate, her Samsung Frame TV powers on, and her blinds open — and voila she’s ready to embrace and live her best day. Also, by consolidating all of her connected home devices into the SmartThings app, she eliminates the need to juggle multiple apps, simplifying control over her smart ecosystem.

“It opens up a world of possibilities for me,” she reflects, “a world that is configurable, customizable, and ready to build upon to suit my family’s needs.” Embracing smart home tech has not only made her more present but has also empowered her children to learn responsibility, allowing them to participate in household tasks like moving laundry from the washer to the dryer. Now, with chores becoming a family affair, their household runs smoother than ever before, all thanks to the wonders of smart home technology!
