My name is Jacinda Palomo, and I'm a student at Arizona State University studying journalism and mass communication. Alongside this, I'm also part of Barrett the Honors College at ASU. I'm joining the ASU Odyssey community as a Sophomore and am excited to create content I'm passionate about that is also interesting for readers!

Growing up I've always had an interest in culture, as my parents proudly embraced our Filipino and Mexican heritage. I love learning about other peoples cultures and traditions, as well as teaching others about my own. Aside from this, I'm a huge makeup lover! I absolutely love doing makeup on myself as well as on others, it's my favorite way to express my creativity! Fashion has also been a huge interest of mine and I plan on minoring in it alongside my major, as I hope to one day work at Vogue!

My music taste is pretty wide, you can catch me either staring out the window listening to some mellow Indie music or headbanging to some EDM, I love it all! Except country, sorry! I'm also a big dog lover despite the fact that I was once bitten in the face by our family dog when I was a little girl. I now have a permanent scar on my eyebrow because of this which I used to hate but now, I love!

I'm an Arizona native but I hate the heat so I definitely plan on moving to a colder climate once I graduate, most likely New York!
