Samantha Scharff

Samantha is currently a junior at The University of Texas at Austin studying communication studies. While she has never affiliated herself directly with one party over the other, she tends to lean more towards liberal philosophies and prefers to look at all aspects of each issue. Originally from San Antonio, Samantha loves the energy Austin offers with its large community of young, vocal students trying to make an impact. Greatly motivated by her late Grandpa David, an Auschwitz survivor, Samantha’s goals are not only to be a voice of the future, but of the past, and she hopes to get others interested and invested in what is taking place in the world.
