Sammy Herrera at the Ugly Mug

Sammy is a Mexican-American poet from the San Gabriel Valley who accomplished much as a youth poet by competing in slams and competitions, performing a poem at a TedX event, working alongside the Say Word slam team, and featuring her work on various stages. After taking a break from open mics and performing to focus on her career as a teacher/educator, she makes a name for herself by placing 1st place in both the OC Poetry Slam in October and Pomona Slam in December.
