Since he was a kid, Sam loved to Cosplay or dress in outfits from films & TV at Comic Cons and such. In the last few years it has increased to Theater Films and Festivals. in 2019 he created CRAZY COSPLAY ADVENTURES to spread the love of Cosplay, help Events raise money for charity and help the community.
DOSSIER OF EXPERIENCE
2017 Crazy Cosplay Cinema (Co-Presented "The Carrier", a Michigan-made film, at the Manchester Public Library)
We organized several of the Actors to attend the event to speak of their role; we spoke to and received the blessing of the
Creator, Nathan White. We also received signed original posters and shirts for a raffle from Mr. White. We also
organized a Pub Crawl/after party with local Taverns with signature drinks related to the movie.
