Samantha Mei Paull

Since a young age, Samantha has been a creative spirit. At age 6, after seeing the Avenger's movie, she began writing a script for a Black Widow movie. (This led to her asking about where to 'rent' a helicopter for the overhead shots!) Her love of film and music led her to choir and then hip hop, which she studied for over 4 years with Love4UrbanArt. Since then she has applied her creative skills to hip hop, choreography, script writing, and acting. A chance encounter with a local makeup artist connected her with actress Katie O'Grady, owner of Acting for Kids and Teens, where she has studied for 4 years. In that time, her confidence has grown and her passion for 'all things drama' has deepened. In her free time she works on scripts, does character studies, and self-tapes monologues from her favorite shows and movies. This summer she had the chance to work on a short film, experiencing movie-making up close. Sam likes skateboarding with her brother, hiking, horseback riding, and yoga with her mom, playing billiards with her dad, kayaking with her BFF, playing badminton with her grandparents, watching Supernatural (her current favorite show) and traveling the world (she has many more passport stamps than the average teen!) Sam is mature beyond her years, very level-headed, and a super fast study, memorizing dialogue and stage direction very quickly.
