Biography

Fun fact: When I was 10, I went white water rafting down the Colorado River.  

My name is Samantha Ouertani, and I was born and raised in Miami, Florida. I intend on concentrating in Environmental Engineering because I love math and want to develop solutions that can address important environmental issues. In Miami, I love to kayak and bike ride. I love film photography, and when I was younger, I often danced.  I still love to do it and watch videos of professional dancers. I'm excited about the weekly meetings and guest speakers and to be a part of such a close-knit group that encourages students to be outstanding in our work.
