Profile
Name: Nina Abalos (52) Tribe Designation: Bompuka Current Residence: New York City, NY Occupation: Police Officer Interview: „My name is Nina Abalos, I am 52 years old and I work as a cop in New York City. I do think that being a police officer in one of the most corrupt places in the states is going to help me in this game because I’ve developed really tough skin and mental toughness throughout the years I’ve worked there. Obviously, when a guy with a shotgun is aiming at you, you do have to be mentally stable to be able to either talk him out of it or overtake him. I have a husband that I love and I have three amazing children and one grandson. I would say that I am a very respect-giving person but you do have to earn respect with me. What I mean by that is that I don’t discriminate because one of my sons is gay which has taught me to be very open to everybody I meet in my every day life, but you also have to give some respect back. I would definitely say that I can be a firecracker, yes! (laughing) I mean, come on, I’m a Latina! We all have firey blood running through our veins. I will have to keep my attitude in check but if you put me on a tribe with one of those prissy girls that cry out loud because it’s raining all day, storm’s a coming! (snapping fingers) I would say that I am a fierce competitor. I can be your best friend or your worst enemy, just depends which one of my two faces you feed. I feel like I am the whole package. I have physical strength, mental strength and the ablity to think quick on my feet. There’s no reason for me to lose.“
