Hey everyone, my name is Cynthia! I am a third-year transfer student and I’m from the Los Angeles area. I love anime, playing tennis, drawing, and sewing all kinds of crafts!

Maya Scott Navarrete |
Hiya, I’m Maya! I’m a fourth year originally from Sacramento, studying film production and environmental studies. When I’m not at West Cliff or grabbing tacos, you can find me tending to my houseplants or sewing while listening to a true crime podcast, of course. I’m incredibly passionate about storytelling, from creative writing to film to journalism. I love meeting new people and animals. I’m excited to share some very cool stories and details about our unique university with you all! |

Hi! I’m Sharan and I am a first-year, Literature major. I’m from the Bay Area, specifically more East Bay. I really love reading, writing, listening to music, acting, playing tennis, and exploring cool places with my friends. I’d say my favorite book is Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palvaniuk. Here at UCSC I’m a member of GPhi, and I volunteer at KZSC and CARE. I’m super excited to make podcasts, and I hope everyone enjoys listening to them. |

Hello! My name is Isabella and I am a third year Environmental Studies student concentrating in Agroecology. I’m taking classes from Santa Cruz, but I came to study at UCSC from North Carolina. I enjoy reading, swimming in the ocean, exploring nature, gardening, and playing music. Uzumaki by Junji Ito has been my favorite read recently, and I program shows for KZSC from playlists I’ve been curating since 2017. I’m excited to start creating podcasts for other Slugs who enjoy taking in sound bites! |
