Hey, I'm Sammy

Actor | Filmmaker

Originally from Northern Virgina, I moved to New York City in 2014. Since then, I can be spotted in countless independent films as well as in TV/Print work for big name brands. When I'm not on set, you can find me on stage or workshopping new plays as a member with The New Ambassadors Theatre Company. I most recently held the Principal role performing in Robin Rice's full length play "This Dream Has Teeth" directed by Kenny Marshall at The Tank, NYC July 2025.  

 

I co-founded  Blue Plumbago Productions with my partner in 2023. Having grown up writing and performing my own material, I continue to follow my calling as a storyteller.  My work predominantly focuses on Comedy, Romance and the Supernatural. My award winning holiday comedy short film "X-Mas Anonymous" concludes its festival run, screening in 30+ festivals nationwide, including in the Oscar qualifying Holly Shorts Film Festival (Monthly Screenings) and has collected a number of finalist nominations and awards, most notably being named Winner at The Manhattan Film Festival 2024. My latest written comedy short film "How's That Working For You?" is enjoying it's fair share of recognition in this year's 2025 festival circuit. 

 

Next up, I will be directing my first written feature film "Where Off Earth Have You Been? (a Science Fiction Romantic Comedy). "Where Off Earth Have You Been?" has been recently named a Finalist/Award Nominee at The International Indie Film & Screenplay Festival.
