Name (Age): Kristina Ghorbani (19)

Tribe Designation: TBD

Current Residence: Tarzana, CA

Occupation: Student/Social Media Influencer

Personal Claim to Fame: My personal claim to fame is having over 5 million followers on my Instagram channel, where I promote women empowering other women, share stories about my life and provide practical tips for female college students on how to make it when they get out of high school.

Inspiration in Life: My inspiration in my life is my beldam Marzieh - that's my grandmother - because she has worked so hard to achieve a better life for her children when she came here from Iran with nothing after the revolution happened.

Hobbies: Photography, swimming and long walks on the beach

Pet Peeves: People who make assumptions about others without getting to know them is a big one for me. Also, people who are just gross in general.

3 Words to Describe You: Optimistic, Playful and Adventurous

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: The Survivor contestant I am most like would be Parvati because not only are we both good looking, but I'd like to consider myself a smart strategic player like her as well, just in terms of being able to influence people and think multiple steps ahead of the competition.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: My reason for being on Survivor is to prove to myself and to everyone around me that I'm a lot tougher than what people think I am. Just because I'm from California and I have a social media presence doesn't mean I'm some stupid spoiled brat! I'm not denying that winning the money would be an amazing start to my adult life, but it's the vindication that I want most.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I think I will survive Survivor because I know how to get along with other kinds of people that are vastly different than I am, and that's an area where many other people fall short and that is fatal in a game like this.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I think I will be the Sole Survivor because people will more than likely underestimate me and assume that I'm just a silly little girl that's here on a vacation when in reality I'm here to win.I believe that I have the intelligence and the social skills to help keep my finger on the pulse of the game and I can toe the line between pulling my weight and being seen as a threat physically. So I'm ready to go in there and kick some ass.
