Biography[]

Retrieved from MTV.com

The Gauntlet[]

Then: Tina was Cara's loud, prissy replacement on South Pacific. She complained during missions and got on Chris's last nerve. Tina instantly bonded with Donell, but butted heads with Mary Beth.

Now: Tina has finished her bachelor's degree in psychology and women's studies. She'd like to eventually become a marriage or sex therapist, but right now she wants to become a professional cheerleader for sports teams.

Relationships: She says she is "too jaded" to have a good love life right now.

Best Known For: Being Cara's loud and whiny replacement on South Pacific.

Battle of the Sexes 2[]

High: Tina is a bitch and proud of it. She was a bit of a complainer during her season, but has since shown she's a tough competitor when it comes down to it. She kicked Angela's booty during the boxing mission of the Road Rules Face Off. We wouldn't want to mess with her.

Lows: Her tough exterior doesn't help her win friends easily. She was voted off The Gauntlet pretty early on, hopefully she'll last longer this time.

Relationships: Tina has recently separated with her boyfriend, maybe she'll partake in a little Challenge romance?

The Inferno II[]

The Good: Tina is a tough chick who has the ability to go far in these Challenges. She just missed being part of the BOTS2 final three.

The Bad: Tina seems to enjoy starting arguments with her teammates just so she can hear herself talk. This does not bode well for team morale (and kinda makes people want to vote you off).

The Ugly: Tina's mouth ran rampant on BOTS2 and her ego grew bigger than Coral's double Ds.

Fresh Meat[]

Tina is a tough chick who has the ability to go far in these Challenges. She just missed being part of the Battle of the Sexes 2 final three. She seems to enjoy starting arguments with her teammates just so she can hear herself talk. This does not bode well for team morale (and kinda makes people want to vote you off). Tina's mouth ran rampant on Battle of the Sexes 2 and her ego grew bigger than Coral's double Ds. During The Inferno II, this Bad Ass was one of the "mean girls" who ganged up on Tonya. Whether or not Tonya deserved it is up to you. Will this "mean girl" stir up trouble for Tonya in Australia?

The Duel[]

Tina is a tough chick who has the ability to go far in these Challenges. She and Fresh Meat teammate Kenny fought like an old married couple, but battled their way to second place. She seems to enjoy starting arguments with her teammates just so she can hear herself talk, which does not bode well for morale (and kind of makes people want to vote her off). Despite her mouth and an ego comparable to Coral's double DD's, she knows how to play the game and doesn't let friendships get in her way (sorry Diem). Will she and Kenny recapture their "team chemistry" or will Tina go solo?
