Hello everyone, my name's Colin Romaglia and I'm a reporter who will be contributing to the Arizona State University (ASU) Odyssey. I'm a sports journalism major and digital audiences minor at ASU's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication. I joined the Odyssey Online as a sophomore.
Due to my ever-growing love for sports, most of my coverage will surround various teams, athletes, and the impact of sports on society. Occasionally, I plan on branching out to tackle non-sports content, because as we all know, there's a lot more to life than that.
I hope to bring you all content from what my friends would call a mature, unique, and humorous perspective. Nothing brings me more joy as a writer then to make someone else think, "wow, I never really thought of it like that".
Outside of the Odyssey, I'm a student worker inside ASU's Digital Audiences Lab and I'm the Director of Sports Podcasts for Blaze Radio, ASU's student station. I do enjoy writing, but I also take a lot of pride in my skills as a broadcaster and digital marketer.
Originally, I'm from Fair Lawn, New Jersey, so needless to say getting used to Arizona has been a massive lifestyle change. My favorite sports teams are all over the map, as they include: the Pittsburgh Steelers (NFL), the New York Yankees (MLB), the Minnesota Timberwolves (NBA), and the New Jersey Devils (NHL).
I'm definitely an old soul, and if I could go back in time, the choice is hands down being sent back to the roaring 1920s. My favorite author is F. Scott Fitzgerald and some of my favorite music artists include Frank Sinatra, Michael Bublé, and Toby Keith. Just think Captain America, but you know, without all the superpowers.
