What is the craziest thing you have ever done.
A few years ago, I was mentoring for the "Choices Program" at the Juvenile Justice Center. I was trying to encourage delinquents to make better life choices. In the process, we put together a skit demonstrating peer pressure. In the skit, I was being pressured to swallow a gold fish from the fish bowl, and much to my own amazement, I did it!!! Unknowingly, I must have been practicing for a future "Fear Factor" episode.

Please list, starting with the latest, any schools and universities (public/private/graduate/trade or technical) you have or are attending, as well as the area of study, last date completed and any degree or certification you received.

What is the most interesting or surprising thing about you, or that has happened to you.
I have a passion for football and boxing. I helped coach football for 2 years, and I boxed for 8 years. I was crowed Miss Idaho Teen Latina 2002 and also Miss Idaho Teen USA 2004.

Are you the oldest, youngest or a middle child and what does that mean to you.
I am the middle child and that means learning from the oldest and teaching the youngest.

Name one person family, friend, celebrity, who has had the most influence on your life.
It is hard to name just one person because there have been several people who have had a great influence on my life. However, I have narrowed it down to Frances Hughes. Many people have come into my life at different turning points and have provided me with what I needed at the time, whether it be emotional, financial or spiritual. Frances filled a void within me as my mentor in the Big Brothers and Big Sisters Program.
