Completing his Drama degree in 2017 from ESAD Málaga, the same institution where legendary actor Antonio Banderas also honed his craft, Samuel journeyed to Madrid to further refine his acting skills. His passion for the arts led him to delve into film creation at MADS (Madrid Audiovisual Drama School), where he was a pioneering member of the Actor Creators program affiliated with ESCAC, an esteemed institution known for nurturing emerging cinematic talents.
Emerging from his academic pursuits, Samuel's acting career flourished, gracing numerous television series and films. In 2020, he brought his original idea to life by producing and starring in his debut short film, 'Typical Spanish', showcasing not only his acting prowess but also his creative talents.

In 2022, 'Toxic Positivity' (Positividad Tóxica), his third short film, achieved an impressive 35 selections across various festivals, with three being qualifying festivals for the esteemed Goya Awards.
As 2023 unfolds, Samuel's journey takes an exhilarating turn as his project 'Positividad Tóxica' (Toxic Positivity) transforms into a series.
