Makena Turner, Student Life – Section Editor
Hi Raptors! My name is Makena, and I’m so thrilled to help deliver the news to you all this year. I am originally from Brooklyn, New York, and I’m still a major city girl at heart. I’m this year’s varsity cross-country co-captain and co-founder of For the Girls here at Magnet. I love coffee, music, fashion, working out, and my dogs. Outside of the classroom, you can find me seating tables at The Red Drum in Mount Pleasant, or in my home studio recording a podcast for Her Words. I love spending time with friends, going to the beach, and shopping Downtown. Journalism and all of its facets have always been an art form I hold dear. In an ever-changing and evolving world, nation, and community, it is so crucial to have access to unlimited information, entrusted to us by you. In short, I am so excited for this year’s commitment to you, and go Raptors!
