ELEVATOR PITCH 
When I am not creating havoc on the Dodgeball court, I am working diligently to pack Ross Stores with Merchandise.  I am a 6 year Army veteran who constantly thinks about going back in.  I would miss my family and friends, though.  In the meantime, I enjoy sports, volunteering, and meeting new people.

Nina spends most of her day pushing drugs to make a couple dollars bills each day.  When she gets a minute out of her high paced life in the drug industry she plays HYP dodgeball and kickball and even attends some HYP happy hours. Due to the lucrative drug business she is able to buy an inflatable raft and take nice long boat rides along the clear Susquhanna River.
 
*All drug pushing from Nina Rao is legal by the U.S Federal Government
