At 28, Samantha walked into Pacific Artists Management in Vancouver asking to be represented.  She had no experience, no resume, and no real training but a lot of tenacity and confidence.  Using her media background, Samantha spent her first year as an actor doing small reporter parts on local tv shows and movies shot in Vancouver .  It was obvious at that by the age of 30, she had found her calling and has been a fulltime working actor ever since.

With a voice like gravel and an unshakable confidence, Samantha has put together an impressive acting resume over the last 10 years.  She has landed lead roles in highly acclaimed tv shows like Beggars and Choosers, The 4400, and the Showtime feature The Ranch.  She has also been a popular recurring guest star on Supernatural Stargate  The Chris Isaak Show and the short lived but widely revered series The Evidence.   Other work includes series work on Smallville, the L Word, Battlestar Gallactica, Reunion , and numerous TV and big screen features, including the soon to be released 2 part mini series Impact with David James Elliot, James Cromwell and Natasha Henstridge.

Samantha lives in her hometown of Vancouver , B.C. with her cat Kramer where she continues to act and work in radio.  Sam hates spiders, her favourite colour is purple, and if she could be stuck on a desert island for the rest of her life, she would choose to take actor Sam Rockwell with her.  And maybe a Dave Mathews CD.
