Buenas yan håfa adai! I na’an hu Makayla Atoigue si Banidosu na CHamoru yu’ ginen Guåhan.
Hello! My name is Makayla Atoigue and I am a proud CHamoru from Guahan.
I am a senior at Brown University studying Environmental Engineering and Critical Native American & Indigenous Studies.
Outside of the classroom, I am a member of the NCAA D1 Varsity Rugby team and Guam's International Rugby Team.
I am passionate about creating solutions for environmental injustices and revitalizing Indigenous cultures and epistemologies.
I enjoy learning more about people from all walks of life and look forward to connecting to discuss all things regarding engineering, DEI and environmental studies.
