BIO
Mikaela Gabrielle De Castro is the Blogs Editor of TomasinoWeb.
The clad-in-pink girl is an Asian studies major who passionately covers cultural criticism, identity, media, and literature. She also writes for the youth and opinion sections of local news outlets Rappler, the Philippine Daily Inquirer, and the Philippine STAR.
When she doesn’t pressure herself to write about everything, she hoards Sanrio stationery and Sylvanian Families, reads sappy non-fiction novels, and rewatches Barbie classics thrice a month.
