Samantha was raised as a violinist and chamber musician in Minneapolis and San Francisco. She ventured to McGill University in Montréal for undergraduate studies in cellular and molecular biology and medical anthropology, which sparked her initial interest in infectious disease in medical school. During medical school and residency, Samantha worked with multiple pediatric infectious diseases specialists, who inspired her to pursue pediatric infectious diseases as her chosen field. Samantha’s research has focused on risk factors for fungal infections in critical care patients undergoing corrective congenital heart surgery, the necessity of federal programs for vaccine accessibility, and the importance of language equity in the care of pediatric populations. In her spare time, Samantha loves to play the violin, bake, explore new places by running and skiing, go to baseball games (now an Orioles fan), and knit socks.
