Embedded Files
My name is Jessie Couto, I'm 26 years old, and I am a first time student at Arizona State University through my SCAP Partnership with Starbucks. I'm originally from the very small town of West Liberty, West Virginia and grew up on a secluded but beautiful farm with my parents, 2 younger sisters, and our many pets and farm animals. I have lived there for the majority of my life, but last year in September I moved to Boiling Springs, South Carolina with my boyfriend for him to continue his education for a doctorate in chiropractic. We have also taken in a beautiful stray calico feline since we've been here and have made her a permanent member in our small family (we named her Callie ❤️).
I'm currently majoring in anthropology, but I've been considering changing it to either a master's degree or potentially getting a minor in history or geography to pair with it. At this time, I don't really have an end goal in mind for my degree, but I adore the concept of learning about the world's history and the beautiful cultures that have endured in it and wish to make it into something I can continuously learn from and actively pursue in my life.
In my spare time, I enjoy traveling when I can, reading a good fantasy novel, singing in the shower, cooking meals, outdoor activities/hiking, being with good company, art museums, yoga, drawing, coffee, video games, and D&D just to name a few.
My Favorites:
Novel: Lord of the Rings
Food: Ramen and Gyros
Color: Forest Green

Achievements

I consider recovering from a mental crisis to be an achievement for me. I have been struggling with major depression and anxiety for a long time, and this year I decided to seek out help for it. I've been doing much better and is part of the reason I'm back in school.

I'm starting to learn new languages like Spanish, Italian, and ASL. Mind you, I am VERY new to it, so I can't hold conversations yet!
I'm constantly trying out new recipes to make. I don't know if that counts as a goal, but the results are superb.
