Cover Model Search Finalist Carissa

Carissa is a product evaluator, and her main ambition is “To live life to the fullest!” Her hobbies include riding motorcycles, swimming, camping, and listening to the blues. Her biggest turn-on is someone who can make her laugh and carry on a good conversation. On the other hand, cocky guys are a major turnoff for her. Carissa told us that she’s a sucker for redheads and bikers. So I’m guessing a redheaded biker would be ideal?

Carissa describes her personality as happy-go-lucky, and she’s often told that her smile is her best attribute. When asked what the smartest thing is she’s ever done, Carissa said “Staying independent.” And when it comes to the most stupid thing, she told us “Trusting roommates to pay.” I sense a bit of frustration there!
