Sam Texas Made in Brazil

Born in São Miguel Paulista, São Paulo, Sam grew up in the periphery — public schools, limited resources, and a determination that refused to accept limits. A lifelong reader and self-taught learner, he built a career in audiovisual engineering spanning more than two decades.

His professional path includes work at Facebook, Apple (supporting 240+ global video conference rooms), and as a Senior AV Engineer / Project Consultant at Texas Children’s Hospital. He is currently a Senior Engineer at Tesla / SpaceX.

Through his channels he shares life in Austin, fitness, family, and the everyday realities of building something from nothing as a Brazilian immigrant. He has also been a long-time supporter of creators like África Sem Tabús.
