Hi! My name is Saamiyah Ali, and I am a freshman in college. After completing two years of high school, I graduated early and began attending Las Positas College. Currently, I am pursuing my degree in Computer Engineering with plans to transfer to a 4-year college. In the future, I aspire to make a positive impact on the world.
In 2021 and 2022, I actively participated in a robotics competition, fostering my passion for technology and problem-solving. I collaborated with a team to design, build, and program our robot to complete specific tasks. In the end, my team won second place the first year, then achieved first place as we upped our tactics the next year. In May of 2024, instead of being a participant, I took the the head scorer role for this competition, organizing and managing data while guiding the other scorers under my wing. This competition showcases my practical skills, teamwork, leadership, and dedication to STEM fields.
In the past, I have also been deeply commited to music as an extracurricular. With 5+ years of experience, dabbling between numerous instruments, I furthered my teamwork, discipline, and artistic expression qualities in addition to consistently placing with my school band in copious competitions.
At the moment, beyond my education, I am deeply committed to supporting my community. As a digital marketing volunteer for a nonprofit organization, I create content, manage social media, and engage in community outreach. Additionally, I am in my third year of assisting in teaching the youth at my local Sunday School.
