Biography
Hi I’m Sam! I’m a Senior dual degree student in computer science and statistics. I also have done research in a number of areas — particularly indigenous communities, climate change, and computational political science. Outside of school, I really enjoy exploring innovative music genres.
Personal Statement
I joined I4K because I know firsthand how devastating cancer can be. Both of my parents have cancer, and have benefit from drugs created in clinical research. I look forward to using my experience as a caregiver to advocate for cancer research, and to learn more about the experiences of other cancer patients.
