About Me

My name is Samantha and I go by the nickname AngelSamui. I have been cosplaying since 1999. I work as an actress and a legal assistant. My work in the theatre fulfills my love of wearing exciting costumes while performing. My background in cosplay has also allowed me to also work as wardrobe crew/lead, a stitcher, a wig maintenance stylist, and even a costume designer in the the theatre world. I have even expanded into the world of princess/character parties to bring smiles to little ones at parties, events, and online storytimes.
