I will go first… My name is Ms. Carolyn Yusa. I am originally from Chicago, Illinois. I go to Loras College and played softball my freshman year and I have been on the cheerleading team all four years. I have 3 dogs back home in Chicago along with my mom, and I have 2 older brothers. My dad passed away when I was in high school. My favorite color is a tie between red and blue. I have a major sweet tooth!
