Carmen Mackins

Carmen is a student at Northwestern University studying communications, marketing and social psychology. She has been fond of writing ever since she learned how, and still refuses to stop using dashes to dot her i's. She is low-key obsessed with sunglasses, high-key obsessed with nail polish and always needs someone to pull her away from the jewelry section in stores. A dreamer, a writer and a hopeless romantic (or former athlete) she is constantly on a mission to make the most out of every day and still find time to binge watch a show or read a good book.
