A guest speaker at numerous national organizations, his expertise has been contributed to over 30 schools across the country and into Canada.
During his high school years as an elite punter and kicker from Canandaigua, New York, Sam trained under the legendary kicking coach Edward J. "Doc" Storey and was greatly impacted by his coaching. Those influences would later inspire him to pursue coaching himself.
