Hello everyone! My name is Mikena Palumbo and I am a second-year Business Administration major, and am debating switching to Management Information Systems. I am originally from Long Beach, California, and I love the culture of SoCal. I chose San Diego State because it was the perfect distance away from home and allowed me to be in Southern California. I am obsessed with the warm California weather and am far from being built for cold weather.

In my personal life, I love to go to the gym as well as train my friends in the gym, play volleyball, go to the beach, explore new places around San Diego, etc. Most of my hobbies are focused around friends and fitness, which are two things I place heavy importance on. I have two twin sisters who are younger than me and love teaching them about my hobbies and learning about theirs.

In my school life, I am involved in a professional co-ed business fraternity. I have been involved in this organization for the past year and am currently the Senior Vice president. This is my biggest academic endeavor currently and is something that is very very important to my life. I live on campus with eight girl roommates which can be quite chaotic but also keeps my home very active and fun.

Looking forward to meeting you all!!
