Hailing from the education sector, Samantha has spent a huge amount of time engaging youths and young adults aspiring to become educators. In her free time, she finds joy in lounging on the couch with a good book or going on adventurous explorations, albeit admitting to being a self-professed scaredy-cat.
With a passion for youth work and a degree in Psychology, Mira supports Resilience Collective’s work with youths. She dreams of a time when peers need not feel stigmatised over their own experiences, can find courage in seeking help, and can encourage one another to seize empowerment in steering their own recovery journeys. She is a long-time lover of Japanese culture (read: avid anime fan) and most things related to nature, especially kayaking.
