What is the most important attribute of a 49ers cheerleader?
The most important attribute for 49ers cheerleader is to be passionate or both the Gold Rush and the 49ers. When someone is truly passionate about something other qualities will arise such as loyalty, punctuality, whole-heartedness that will help bring a team together. Also, when a fan sees a cheerleader who does have a passion for the game they themselves will be more inspired to cheer for the 49ers.

What is your most memorable moment as a Gold Rush member?
My most memorable moment as a Gold Rush member was during my rookie year and it was the Bill Walsh tribute. It is moments like this that make you remember how rich of history the 49ers have. Being there to witness a tribute for a NFL great was absolutely amazing.

What is something most fans do not know about the Gold Rush?
Most fans do not realize the hard work and commitment that each woman on the Gold Rush puts in. People think that it is a job that is filled with glitz and glamour, but we do put in many hours of practice to be game day ready. For all the women on the team, Gold Rush is something that we commit to in addition to school or a career.

How did you get started dancing/cheering?
As a child, I loved the spotlight. My mother would tell me that I was always dancing and singing. She quickly signed me up for my first dance lesson and the rest is history. From that moment on I fell in love with dance and it has become one of my passions ever since then.

How do you relax?
On my down time when I’m not studying, cheering or working I like to simply stay at home, curl up under a blanket and watch movies.

Who is your role model?
My role model is my mother because she has made many sacrifices to give me all that I have. She emigrated from the Philippines in order to provide better opportunities for me here in the United States. Even though I grew up here in the states she has instilled Filipino cultural values that have turned me into the woman I am today. 

What do you do in your spare time?
In my spare time I love to take long runs. I have completed a 10k and 12k, and I am training for a half marathon this year.
