Cecilie Renee Cardoza

Name: Cecilie Renee Cardoza.

Age: 21.

Residence: Yuba City.

Occupation: I'm a sales associate at the Corner Bike Shop. I am also a barista at New Earth Market right next door.

Hobbies, interests: Bicycles. It's a fairly recent hobby, but most definitely something I see myself doing long term. I'd love to bike the US for multiple sclerosis someday. I also really enjoy painting and interior design.

What keeps you in the Yuba-Sutter area? My friends and family. It may be a small town, but everyone I care about lives here.

Where would you like to live someday? I would love to live in Santa Cruz. Live right by the beach and ride my bike everywhere. That would be perfect.

What would you do with a million dollars? I would buy my sister the car of her dreams. I would donate some to a local charity. And I would buy a small house near the ocean.

Whom do you most admire? My mom, hands down. She is the most genuine, kind hearted person I know. I admire her creativity and positive energy. She is the raddest mom ever.

Who has had a strong influence in your life? My dad. He is extremely hardworking and has taught me so much. He is the main reason I have so much ambition. He has always been there for me no matter what. I am very grateful.

What did you want to be when you were a kid? When I was 6, I thought I was going to be an "artist."

Favorite places to go to in the area? Corner Bike Shop.

What is your dream job? To be independently wealthy. That way I can travel the world and live life to the fullest.

What is one of your fondest memories? Any time spent with my sister, Emily. She is seriously the coolest girl I know. We have the best times together. Our adventures have just begun.

Favorite foods? Sushi and my family's homemade ravioli.

What would you change about the community? I would make Yuba more bicycle friendly.

What is your pet peeve? Shallow people who let others tell them who to like and dislike.
