Sharita Sopacua

Name one person, other than your parents, who has had the most influence on your life. Why?
My brother Miguel because he means a lot to me. He's 2 years older and is always there for me when I need him.

What is the most interesting or unique thing that has ever happened to you (aside from winning your title) and/or what is the most interesting thing about you?
I lived in New York for 2 1/2 months and I did some modeling jobs there. For me it was totally interesting because it's New York! It was also something totally different than what I was doing, studying human resource management. I did it during a break and I lived with three Dutch roommates in Manhattan. It was a really great experience.

What is your career ambition and what are you doing or plan to do to accomplish that goal?
At the moment I'm studying human resource management. I think it's really interesting to know what motivates people to behave in a certain way. My goal is to have my own coaching practice. Besides this, I would also love to have my own gym because I'm an aerobics instructor myself and I really like sports; I also think it's important to exercise often for your health.

Describe where you were raised and what your childhood was like.
I was raised in 'S-Hertogenbosch by my parents Martin and Bea Sopacua. I had a very nice childhood. We did a lot of family stuff together. I have a very good relationship with my parents and my brother. Both of my parents are working; my father is a psychologist and my mother is a secretary. Both of my parents are open-minded; I could always come to them if I had any problems.

List any interesting or unsual jobs you may have had.
I really haven't had any unusual jobs. For example, I've worked in a clothing store, as a dancer, aerobic instructor, and as a model.
