Samantha Takeda, Staff Artist
During her freshman year, Samantha was inspired by her sister Alexssa’s fascinating experience with Signals and debated on applying to become a staff artist until she received the final push from supportive friends and family. She enjoys drawing, playing tennis, and picking up new skills in her spare time. She’s always had a passion for art and using it to tell stories. Going into her sophomore year, she’s excited to test her limits as a freelance artist and see how far she can progress even with the unusual circumstances of a virtual school year.

She expressed, “online [school] is getting tiring as it’s hard to sit and look at a computer for a long time and learning feels the same for every class.”](https://whssignals.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Returning-to-School-675x900.jpg)
