Hi, I'm Samantha, an emerging director and filmmaker from Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. 

​

A recent graduate from the Honours Bachelor of Film & Television degree program at Sheridan College, I have a strong ability to collaborate with others, lead a team of creatives, and problem solve.

​

I have a passion for directing and bringing unique and personal stories to life. I have extensive experience directing short films as well as editing documentaries. 

​

My favourite film genres to direct are dramas, thrillers, and comedy. And I love editing personal and emotional documentaries, constructing compelling and inspiring stories.

​

The best stories we tell are ones from personal experience that leave audiences feeling changed, moved, or inspired.

​

A wise woman once said, "In my films I always wanted to make people see deeply. I don't want to show things, but to give people the desire to see."  ~ Agnes Varda

When I'm not making films you can catch me hiking, hanging out with dogs, sipping tea, and watching sunsets
