Age: 13

Parents' names: Cyn Dee Graves and Moses Gonzalez

Favorite class: Science is Angelica's favorite class right now, she said. The straight-A student also is a member of the National Honor Society.

Activities in school: Angelica likes to pass the time hanging out with friends, although she also is a member of her school's Student Council.

Activities outside of school: Five days a week, Angelica plays soccer with the Tucson Soccer Academy. As goalkeeper, she acknowledges that she sometimes gets nervous with balls flying at her, but she just forgets her fear and plays the game.

With her team, she is participating in the Olympic Development Program, which she describes as a way to prepare for college. Her team will travel to Madrid, Spain, for a tournament this summer.

Whom would you have lunch with if you could have lunch with anyone? Angelica said she'd dine on the soccer field with Christiano Ronaldo, a soccer player for Manchester United in England and the Portuguese national team. The two would forgo the traditional soccer fare of orange slices for tacos, she said.

Whom do you admire most? Moses Gonzalez, Angelica's father, is the person she most admires. "He's been through a lot, and he helps a lot of people," she said, noting that he owns seven recovery homes for drug and alcohol addiction and works as a sales manager for Chicago Music Store.

Plans after high school: Angelica plans to go to college, but she doesn't know where yet. However, she thinks she'd like to study forensic science.

Dream job: "I want to become a CSI detective," she said. "I just like the science part of it."

Dream car: A Ford Mustang is the car for Angelica. Why? "Because it's pretty and fast," she said.

Favorite place in Tucson: Her father's home.

Hidden talents: While attending Whitmore Elementary School, Angelica played violin for two years.

Vouch: "For her to be able to balance everything and have the time for her dad and grandma on the weekend is amazing," said her mother, Cyn Dee Graves, who nominated Angelica.
