Makena Fajardo is a second-year undergrad at UW pursuing a degree in Communications and Dance. Born and raised in Seattle, the UW Seattle campus is truly a second home.
Passionate about niche interests and fun facts, she loves to write about whatever hyperfixation she currently has. When she isn’t spewing random facts, she loves reading and recommending books about nature. Always taking advantage of what the Pacific Northwest has to offer and helping her friends and community get more involved with the outdoors.
When she’s not studying away on campus; you can find her working at her hometown bookstore, being an amateur DJ, or adventuring outside surrounded by nature.
