Sam was raised in Kansas City where he took his first step toward acting in local theatre at the age of eight, after his parents noticed his singing ability. Singing and acting lessons soon led to appearances in local productions of "Annie" and "Aladdin". His Kansas City roots led him down the Yellow Brick road with parts in "The Wizard Of Oz", "Beauty and the Beast", "Cinderella", "Sleeping Beauty", "Princess Bride", "Oklahoma" and "Peter Pan" to mention just a few of his early stage credits that hooked him into a career in acting, and awarded him several theatre awards including "Kansas City's Best Actor", and a "Best Supporting Actor" award for his role in "Beauty And The Beast". Sam's brother Jacob proceeded to cast him various starring and featured roles in films he produced and directed as a student before receiving his degree in Cinematic Arts. Sam was soon adaptable, directable and confident in front of the camera and was fabulous on the big screen. After appearing in more than a dozen commercials, feature and short films, Sam headed to Los Angeles to take his acting career to the next level. Upon studying acting with Steve Eastin in LA, he was immediately cast in several commercials and films including "Personage", "2 AM", "Withdrawal", "Miami" and "Work". Sam has also landed work on internet streaming channel shows, appeared in several music videos including Gisele Torres' "Break Up" and has worked as a professional model. To enhance his acting skills, Sam is not only a talented singer and dancer but quite the athletic acrobat, willing and able to do his own stunts. He can roller blade, swim, box, wrestle and is stage combat trained. Sam's manager is quoted to say that he is every director and casting director's dream....an actor with a passion to please, super friendly disposition, positive attitude, has integrity, honesty, takes the work seriously and is not so bad in the good looks department! Sam's most precious gift is to entertain people by engaging them with his charming personality!!
