Meeting Danielle Fazzolari From WEP
by Oni
For our interview with Danielle Fazzolari, we went to the Gowanus in Brooklyn. We went to a building that is called the Gowanus Bond. The Gowanus Bond was a large building whose purpose was for companies and other businesses that wanted or needed a place to work. Inside, the building was very old but it also has some modern aspects like bold solid colored walls. The walkways were dark blue and turquise and would follow a path around the building. When we first walked in we went straight to the front desk and asked for Danielle. As soon as we said that Danielle had walked behind us and had asked if we wanted tea of something to drink. Once we went downstairs and got situated we began to talk about why Danielle was interested in women’s education. From then on we could really tell that Danielle was passionate about what she does. Although we only really ot to talk to Danielle it was still extremely informative.
