Samantha Reimers, 17, is a rising senior at Cy-Fair High School in Cypress, Texas.

She is involved in three National Honor Societies and serves as secretary for two clubs. She also plays tennis, volunteers and competes in journalism at UIL. 

She enjoys shopping at thrift stores, reading and playing guitar. Samantha has an extensive love of music that includes a vinyl collection. She said her favorite is her grandmother’s old single-track vinyl of “Let It Be” by the Beatles. She said she loves her farm-born grandmother, whom she affectionately calls Marmee, after the mother in “Little Women.” Samantha said her grandmother encouraged her to apply to this camp.

She said she is not sure about pursuing journalism in college and that she hopes the camp can help her figure out what she wants out of college and life thereafter.
