Samantha's journey started in sunny Southern California , where her love of musical theatre took root early,she was just nine when she made her stage debut as a Lost Boy in an all-girls production of Peter Pan. (She’s been hooked ever since, pun very much intended.) The first in her family to dive into the world of performing, she quickly became the resident entertainer.

​

She went on to train at Huntington Beach High School’s Academy for the Performing Arts, then earned her BFA in Musical Theatre from CSU Fullerton. Like many artists, the pandemic gave her a little too much time to think and create! which led her to branch out into TV, film, voiceover, commercials, and modeling.

​

You may have recently spotted her as Andrea (the giant!) in the film Y2K, or popping up in a commercial for Atlantic Union Bank. Since the start of this year, she’s been training consistently with Eric Reis and is incredibly proud of her growth, along with taking improv at UCB.

​

Now based in New York City , Sam is soaking up every opportunity to learn, perform, and play. She most recently has been getting involved in the production side of things and has been loving it! When she’s not in class, or on set you’ll probably find her hosting friends with a spread of delicious eats and way too many board games. Or maybe just singing to her plants. Either way she’s having a blast.
