Erica Medina was born in Hawaiian Gardens, California. Her beauty is a reflection of her Mexican ethnicity. Her dream of modeling came at a young age where she would page through her mother’s magazines, admiring the beautiful models. Her actual modeling career started in 2006 when a friend dared Erika to send some photos of herself to magazines. Three months later she made her modeling debut in a national magazine. The rest, as they say, is history. Erika quit her job, got a manager and got serious about making a name for herself in the modeling industry. She’s graced the covers or been featured in countless magazines, made several TV appearances and been a part of numerous music videos. Currently, you can find Erika on tour with Monster Energy Drink as a spokesmodel. With a currently-blossoming career, there’s no telling where she’ll end up. All we know is, she has the looks, personality and drive to make anything possible.

5.What kind of mischief did you get into growing up?
Mischief? Me? Never! I was actually a good girl growing up. The worst thing I did was sneak out of the house to go to a few parties. Never got caught…well, unless my mom happens to read this. If that’s the case, thanks for asking that question!
6.What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?
Hmm…I have always had a fear of roller coasters. I had some friends drag me to Six Flags Magic Mountain and I actually got on most of the rides. It was crazy for me given that I faced my fear of roller coasters. I actually had a lot of fun and can’t wait to go back.
