Hi I am Samantha Lee. I was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. I moved around a lot because my dad is in the military. My military background has helped shaped me as I am today. The life of a military brat has allowed me to adapt easier.

It is my goal to be a Marine Biologist. I have been interested in the ocean life for as long as I can remember. The ocean is one of the worlds most valuable resources and it is my goal to someday become someone who studies it and hopefully makes a difference.

I have been on multiple club teams throughout my life. I took a break from club teams my eighth grade year. I joined the Cole High School Swim Team my freshman year. Swimming has taught me many life lessons, including not giving up when you hit a wall.

Photography is a talent I discovered I had when the opportunity was presented to me in the form of a class, my freshman year. I have little artistic skills so photography is the only way I can express my creativity and vision.

Journalism is another activity I am interested in. I am involved in the school's yearbook and have been for two years now. It has taught me the importance of deadlines and quality work.

I am the youngest of four. All of my siblings are out of the house now but we are still in contact. The life of a military brat is not an easy one and we always have each other's backs. My older siblings have taught me so many life lessons that they had to learn on their own.
