Sammy Mohamed is a black writer/director from Ottawa, Ontario. He and his parents immigrated from Somalia in the early 90's. His parents, who were also writers, cultivated his love for the arts at an early age. They watched all sorts of movies and read all sorts of books together and with their help he learned to love stories in all their forms. As he grew older, he fell even more in love with cinema and decided to attend Algonquin College in the Scriptwriting Program. Since then he has written two screenplays, directed a short film and written three short films.
