Samantha Taylor

Looking at Samantha Taylor, better known as Sam, you wouldn't think she just recently transferred to San Mateo High School from Lane Tech College Prep in Chicago, Illinois. Sam is a seventeen year old senior who moved to San Mateo in June of 2007. Although she likes the weather here in San Mateo she prefers living in Chicago, "her home." She lives with her mom and fiancee. She also has a stepbrother who lives back in Chicago. She says about San Mateo, "Everything is different.. scenery, atmosphere and people."

In her free time, Sam enjoys photography, lacrosse, and playing and writing music. Her favorite movie is The Crow because "A strong lesson about karma is in the plot. I'm a strong believer in karma." She doesn't have a favorite class but she's really good at English because it usually comes easy to her. You can probably find Sam in Teague's classroom at lunch, laughing hysterically at Teague's witty banter.

In the future she would like to move back to Chicago and go to medical school to become a nurse and then go on to minor in photography in art school.

"Moving here has been an experience, but I miss everything I had at home. Something like this is what makes me the person I am!"
