With 20 years in video broadcasting, audio reinforcement, audio/video system design, audio mixing, and live production management, bringing with him a wealth of technological and managerial experience. Sam also serves as the technical services and production manager for Soka Performing Arts Center, a world-class live music venue.

Sam’s love and appreciation for music is the true driving force behind his work at TenPints. He is constantly looking for new artists to share with friends and colleagues and is looking forward to exposing a budding South Orange County audience to talented musicians and allowing them to enjoy good music as much as he does. He has a strong desire to allow young artists to experience what it is like to be treated as if they were the Rolling Stones and has a top-of-the-line production package and staff available to them. From the moment they arrive through their time backstage and on stage, until the moment they leave, he wants every artist in his care to feel like a full-blown, bona fide rock star!
