Name (Age): Jessica Mendez (45)

Tribe Designation: TBA

Current Residence: Las Vegas, Nevada

Occupation: Salon Owner

Personal Claim to Fame: Owning a top notch hair salon while also having the freedom to do whatever I want with the profits. I like working out, so why not invest in that?

Hobbies: Working Out, Jogging, Pilates, Reading, Playing Piano.

Pet Peeves: People who lack common sense. I cannot stand people who think they are so smart and knowledgable and yet can't put the simplest things together.

3 Words to Describe You: Focused, Snarky, Strong

If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why?: I'd bring a soccer ball to kick around, a book to read when I'm bored, and a friend to talk and laugh with.

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: I'd say I'm a mesh between Cirie Fields and Trish Hegarty. I'm smart and cunning, but I'm good at not making a show of it.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I've always wanted to do this type of thing. I'm a huge fan and I want that million dollars and the title of Sole Survivor to top everything off.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I'm a very tough lady! If you think that I'd quit after being able to come out and do this, then you need to get the stupid out of your head and wake up!

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I'm sassy, but I'm good about keeping it to private moments. I also know that people are gonna want me around for my strength and my social abilities which I will use to my advantage the first chance I get.
