Hello, my name is Raymundo Sayago and I’m currently a fifth-year student here at Chico State. I am majoring in Journalism (News) and minoring in Marketing. I’m originally from Sonoma County and grew up in a small town called Cloverdale. I’ve been studying journalism for some time now, so I am extremely excited to be a part of The Orion! Some of my hobbies include: discovering new music, sports, cooking, traveling, and hanging out with friends.
