Creative Artists Agency’s Amplify event
that she was recently mistaken as the staff working an event for Angel City FC, the new Los Angeles team in the National Women’s Soccer League, of which she is an investor. She said she wasn’t even sure she should have gone into the investor room at the event but was specifically invited to join in.“And he’s like…’Do you work here?’” she recalled.“I was like, ‘This hurts so good,” she said. “I love this feeling because I can’t wait for this bomb that I’m about to drop.”
"No, actually, I'm an investor too," she said she replied, to the man's surprise."And was like, 'Oh?'"“I can’t wait until we continue to be in spaces like this and drop those bombs on people and say, ‘Damn.’”The Amplify event brought together multicultural thought leaders from across industries for a summit on Ojai, California.
“It’s funny because it’s like sometimes it doesn’t feel so optimistic. Sometimes it’s like, I’m sick and tired,” she said. “It’s one of those things where you’re just like, ‘Wow, I need more, I need something different and I got to go out and I got to create it.’”Samantha Kubota is a senior digital editor and journalist for TODAY Digital based in Los Angeles. Originally from the Chicago area, she grew up dreaming of working for TODAY.
