Rex Higa

 is a contestant from Survivor: Free Agents.

Profile
Rex is a native of New York City. In fact he has hardly left the city since moving there thirty years ago. Rex works as a janitor for PS 41 aka Greenwich Village School. Rex has had his job for the last thirty years and he says that he loves the work he does because it provides a good income for his family.

Rex says that he hopes the other castaways will think of him as a dimwitted janitor, that way he can shock them when he shows them just how intelligent he really is.

Rex is a diehard New York Mets fan who can talk about baseball for hours.

Rex currently resides in Queens, New York City with his wife of thirty-four years Mae. Rex and Mae have three daughters Kerri, Joyce, and June and a son Adam. They are also the proud grandparents of eight grandchildren.

Rex’s reason for being on Survivor is:

"tribename"

- I plan on retiring soon and I think winning Survivor would be a great retirement bonus. My wife has always wanted to go to Athens and I plan on using the money to make that dream possible.
