Margarita is from Wilmington, she attended Banning High school and graduated in 2009. She then attended the University of California, San Diego, where she received a Bachelor of Arts in Cognitive Science in 2013. Margarita is now attending the University of St. Augustine for Health Science in San Marcos, CA and is pursuing a Doctorate in Physical Therapy.

"I first became interested in physical therapy when my brother, who was 27 at the time, could not walk, stand on his own, or do any type of physical activity, due to back pain. He was then sent to a physical therapy facility, where he was treated. Now he is able to not just walk but run, go to the gym, and even coach a softball team."

Margarita loves outdoor activities and is a world traveler. She loves to run and hopes to begin training for her second marathon. She played rugby in college and water-polo in high school. She also loves hiking, horseback riding, swimming, and walking her dogs. For about 10 years she danced Ballet Folklorico.
