Samantha Forbes
Position title: Undergraduate Research (Water@UW Summer REU)

Hello, my name is Samantha Forbes. My hometown is in Penn Laird Virginia, right next to the Blue Ridge Mountains. I go to James Madison University in Harrisonburg VA as a chemistry major with an environmental science and geology minors. I’m interested in research in the analytical environmental chemistry field. My dream is to work in an analytical lab doing research. I love to do chemistry demos in school but outside of school I enjoy playing board games and tennis as well as reading and hiking. A fun fact about me is I briefly worked at a hemp farm and a golf course.
