Experience With over 10 years of experience as a storyteller, Jasmine Gomez is an editor and writer specializing in the commerce and lifestyle space.

You can also find Jasmine's bylines in other outlets, including Apartment Therapy, The Kitchn, Remezcla, and Seventeen. Before pivoting into service journalism, Jasmine spent several years as a local news reporter, interviewing everyday people about their challenges and milestones. That experience and perspective fuels her love for travel and exploration of other cultures. When she's not living her best city life in the Bronx, she enjoys getting away to the Dominican Republic or one of her other dream destinations to recharge and spend time with family. My favorite purchase is a pocket-sized Anker phone charger because I always need some extra juice when I'm on-the-go. A battery-dead phone literally makes me anxious, so having this backup gives me some reassurance that I can always stay connected and document my experiences whenever I'm outside. I love that it always fits in my bag, no matter how small my purse is, and that it comes in fun colors. I've had it for two years and have even convinced some of my friends to buy it.
