About

Sami is an emerging writer, director, and creative producer working and living on Gadigal Land, Sydney. Story-wise, she’s fascinated by the strange ways people behave when they’re in love, afraid, or desperately trying to keep it together, and she’s drawn to stories that are bold, funny and a little bit messy. Her work embraces the dark comedy of everyday life, pairing character-driven storytelling with unexpected genre twists. Alongside her creative practice, Sami has worked across independent film production, television drama series production, scripted development and advertising, giving her a thoughtful, collaborative approach to visual storytelling, combining creative ambition with her knack for making things happen.

She has created music videos for artists including VELVET TRIP, JORDAN LASER, THE TERRYS, BAD HOAX, FREDDY CRABS, HAYLEY MARY and STICKY FINGERS. 

In 2025, Sami wrote the Canberra Short Film Festival Best Screenplay-winning short NOT YET directed by Holly Fraser and starring Sara West, Zoe Cardies and Mark Lee. In 2019 she wrote and directed LIFE AFTER LOVE starring Kirin J. Callinan, a short which won Best Film at the Chippo Film Festival.
