Samantha

In Advanced Programs, Samantha participated in the University of California Los Angeles Sci | Art Lab + Summer Institute. The program is a two-week summer program for high school juniors and seniors. After exposing students to the interface of science, art, and culture, faculty asked them to predict the technological advancements that we will see in the next five years and consider their implications. Samantha's group presented their projections of developments in robotics and artificial intelligence - and compared them to media and pop culture expectations. Other final projects included a pitch for safer, more specialized organ regeneration and a programming code that automatically generates photo collages with minimal human input. In May 2020, she was awarded with a paid Internship at Leimert Park Festival summer program and currently serves on artworxLA’s Board Of Directors as an Alumna Representative.
