An introduction from our new news editor

0
Jennifer brings a wealth of newspaper experience from high school.

My name is Jennifer Pinto. I am a current sophomore here at Transylvania double majoring in English and Spanish, as well as minoring in Psychology.

I am super excited to be the news editor of the Rambler, and I cannot wait to see what this year has in store for the newspaper and its staff. I think that being involved with the newspaper will not only give me a new perspective on both campus and Lexington, but it will help to encourage my writing and love of English.

I am not sure what I want to do with my majors as of now, but I feel like doing what I love and letting things fall into place is the best way to go.

being involved with the newspaper will not only give me a new perspective on both campus and Lexington, but it will help to encourage my writing and love of English.

As far as family goes, my dad is a psychiatrist and my mom is a stay-at-home mom and former nurse. I think my dad’s profession and growing up around all things psychology is why I am interested in it today. I also have a twin brother who goes to Centre College (I know…). We have a one-year-old Yorkshire terrier named Chewy, as well, and he is the cutest thing that you have possibly ever seen.

I used to dance in high school, and I was also on the dance team for my first year of college. I am the Scholarship Chair of Alpha Lambda Delta, the first year honors society, and I am also thinking about joining a sorority.

For hobbies, I am basically a grandma. I love baking and cooking, watching food shows and game shows, crafting, and I have always wanted to learn how to knit. I also like singing, but that is not really a grandma thing.

I am looking forward to sophomore year and all that awaits!
