After working as a sports intern at KSL in the fall of 2002 Sam was hired to work as a sports producer for KSL through July 2006. Then he left for Colorado where he worked for 13 years as a sports anchor.

Sam married Sadie Peavler while living in Colorado and their four children were all born in Colorado Springs. After eight years in the Springs, they built a new home and thought they would be in Colorado for many years to come. Less than a year later the call came that there was an opening for a sports anchor at KSL. It was too hard to pass up.
