Communications senior Samantha Rose is a third-year staffer and Co-Editor-in-Chief of The Muse. She has had a passion for writing since middle school and loves expanding it on The Muse. In addition to journalism, Rose takes a film class and is involved in the Dreyfoos community as co-secretary of National Honor Society, treasurer of Key Club and member of National English Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society. Rose is also a third degree black belt in taekwondo. In addition to helping staffers in The Muse, Rose loves teaching children during the summer at Digi-Camp, where she assists kids with video game programming, video production, photography, and TV production. This summer, Rose gained more journalistic experience at the Asian American Journalists Association’s JCamp at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.

While Rose is keeping her options open, she hopes to pursue a career in communications and continue journalism in college by joining another scholastic publication.
