Sami is a junior in her third semester of Journalism and as a reporter for the Wildcat Chronicle. She first joined to try something new and has since developed a passion for storytelling. Her work has been nationally recognized—she is a national award winner in feature writing and a Best of SNO recipient for her photo essay on the annual senior paper drop. Beyond journalism, Sami plays varsity soccer at WEGO in the spring and competes year-round with her local club team. When she is not on the field or reporting, she enjoys listening to Taylor Swift, The Neighbourhood, Gracie Abrams, Clairo, and Lana Del Rey. She also unwinds by watching “Gilmore Girls” and “Pretty Little Liars.” Looking ahead, Sami hopes to pursue a career in physiology, keeping her curiosity and passion for learning at the forefront of her future.
