Amanda is from Temecula, California. After graduating from Northern Arizona University, she lived in Utah, where she worked as an event coordinator at an ultra-luxury resort.

Amanda loves traveling, spending quality time with friends and family, and exploring new foods and experiences. She lived in Madrid for two years as an English teacher, where she made wonderful friends and memories.
