Bria is a vegetarian; what started as a bet turned into a lifestyle, where she's able to share her love for animals and the environment. Family is important to Bria, who is one of five children and is always surrounded by a host of extended family. She lives in her hometown of Long Beach, CA with her parents, twin sister, younger sister, and cats.
