She is an active member of various professional organizations such as the American Dental Hygienists' Association, Texas Dental Hygienists' Association, and the Bay Area Dental Hygienists' Association. Additionally, she serves as a board member for Potter's Smile. Palermo holds an Associate of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene from Del Mar College and a Bachelor of Science in Technology, Occupational Technology, and Industrial Studies from the University of Houston.
