RUKUS magazine, June 2014, Print

Regina Pacheco you may remember was a featured girl in our March 2010 issue, well, we brought her back and made her our newest cover girl. She’s a Latina with a heart of gold. She grew up in Moreno Valley, California and quickly found that she loved being in front of the camera and the camera loved her back. She has been modeling since she was young and she also has been doing make-up for over 7 years. Since our last meeting, Regina took a break from modeling to attend classes where she studied fire protection and it had a profound affect on her, so much so that she decided to become a certified EMT to help others and potentially save lives. Through this experience she wanted to learn more about how the body functioned through health and fitness so she became a certified fitness trainer. Regina finds this very gratifying since she has the opportunity to help people make goals and obtain these goals. She also likes the fact that people look up to her in a way that changes their lives for the better through health and fitness.
