Little known things:
I like to read, decorate, do scrap booking, paint, write poetry, and do make-up. I also take Karate and like Motown Smile.

Goal:
My main goal is to get my degree in Pharmacology, have my late husband's poems published, become a black belt. Travel to Greece, Egypt and China within a 5 year period.

Born and raised in Arizona?
Yeah, I was born in Ganado and raised there 'til I was 14. I then moved to Flagstaff until I was old enough to move to Los Angeles. I then moved back to Phoenix and got married.

Any hidden talents?
I can wiggle my nose? Unfortunately, I don't have any talents... but I will learn to play the piano soon.

Are you a Hollywood or stay-in-your-'hood kind of girl?
I'm very outgoing so I like to get all dolled up and go out with the girls. It's always fun to do that from time to time. With school starting and all, I think I'll be indoors more often than ever.

Do you have a favorite drink at the club?
Yeah, I'm hooked on 'dem Vodka-Cranberries.

Where can we find you on a typical weekend?
Typically, you'd find me out doing things with friends or family. Going to the movies, hiking, BBQ-ing, or taking a trip out of town.

Favorite city?
I loved Venice, Italy. It was very romantic and just so much to see and learn there. It was beautiful and just an awesome experience I shared with Alfonso.

If you could change one thing in the world, what would it be?
With magical powers? Wink I would reduce the pollution and give us a new start in taking care of the world. As us natives put it, Mother Earth is taken for granted in a lot of ways. I would get rid of all pollutants that cause damage to the environment and have inventors come up with solutions for our necessities using natural resources. Other than the ones harming the environment. I would make recycling a law in all countries and have certain chemicals banned.

You forgot world peace... jk.

Five years from now, what will you be doing?
I hope I'm an inspiration to many aspiring Native American women, I should have my degree and working in my field of choice. Hopefully have a house, and still pursuing another goal to improve myself and society. I hope I will be helping others in some way.

What are you up to these days, any exciting projects?
Right now, I am focused on the fall semester of school. I'm still traveling as much as I can to see as much as I can, learn as much as I can. The only thing I'm working on right now is my vision of how to make Roxine the best she can in her life.

How did you like UI's photo shoot?
I thought it was fun. I've never felt so beautiful (lol) in front of the camera. The photographer was very professional and encouraging so I wouldn't mind working with him again. I thought all the red was really cool and with Spy and San around... I wouldn't have done it better. I had fun there and after.

Any words/comments for the UI crew?
I think what ya'll are doing for our people is cool. It gives a chance and hope... thank you for making me a part of your family and I look forward to doing more shoots/shows, etc. I support your cause 100%. Ya'll are cool and as always... respected. Got love for ya'll... (hugs).
