My name is Samanvika Vadlamudi, and I'm from Texas. I have always cared about protecting our planet, especially when it comes to marine life and water pollution. In my free time, I enjoy dancing, reading mystery and dystopian novels, and trying out new interests like photography. By being a Water Challenge Ambassador, I would have the opportunity to protect marine life by contributing as a community scientist and advocating for the protection of my local watersheds.
