Beachside published writer looking to make a splash.
Don’t let Sam’s looks fool you, she writes high-octane action/thriller/horror screenplays.
She takes much inspiration from her experience in gaming. The subjects of her screenplays are varied, but all tip towards having relatable, grounded protagonists in extraordinary circumstances.
Her work has been featured on the Coverfly RED LIST.
Co-creator of CHiMERA, a shapeshifting sci-fi detective thriller set in futuristic Hawaii where New Honolulu police investigator Akela Barrett’s mercenary past comes back to haunt her as a merciless killer targets her black-ops squad.

"Those who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and bad news. Bad news is we're postponing the tests indefinitely.
