Alina Rae Carranza is a 17 year old high school honor student, equestrian team captain, a four year varsity track and cross country runner and was chosen a Gary Sinise Soaring Valor team member! Spending several years bi-coastally from California to Washington DC has given her a strong love and respect for the United States and its’ history. With an American/ Mexican/Salvadorian ethnic background, Alina has a tender heart for all families. An advocate for childhood blood cancers and a representative for “Be the Match” an International bone marrow registry, she dedicates her time in memory of her cousin Natalia who battled leukemia for several years. Alina’s favorite quote is, “We rise by lifting others” which she strongly believes in.
Alina plans on attending a university in the fall where her love for her horses has helped her in deciding her career path, becoming a large animal veterinarian.
