Hi! My name is Gloria Chuma. I’m a junior at Temple University, majoring in journalism and minoring in political science. I write for the Opinion section at Her Campus. I enjoy expressing my opinions on a wide range of subjects, including entertainment, politics, sports, art, and food.
During my freshman year, I wrote an opinion piece about undocumented immigrants, and it was published by The Philadelphia Inquirer. Outside of Her Campus, I am an Assistant Director and script writer for La Charla, TUTV’s first Spanish-language talk show. I am also a Klein Rising Peer Mentor, where I work with amazing first-year students at the Klein College of Media and Communication.
I come from a big loving Ecuadorian family and am fluent in Spanish. I enjoy going on long walks with my dog and laying on the couch with my cat. My favorite hobbies consist of reading, writing, listening to music, and learning new languages. My favorite artists are Lana Del Rey and Kali Uchis. I also love binge-watching How I Met Your Mother (I don’t hate the ending).
