Elena's Story
I graduated from Van Nuys Junior High and was pretty much a plain simple girl. My brothers are Victor , Rogelio,Eriberto, Flavio, and Sylvia Munoz. My parents we not very interested in my education. Yet, i fought through the cultural differences and continued to focus on school. It took me a while but I graduated as a nurse and have traveled to Hawaii where I lived with my Husband and 2 children. I am now back in California -bought a house and I am homeschooling my daughter.
I am very pleased so far with how God has blessed me. I focus on my family and on giving back whenever I can. I work in the intensive care unit at Intercommunity Hospital in Covina Ca. Being a mom and wife is wonderful and being a nurse is extremely satisfying.
I always wanted to be a nurse when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a good idea. As it turns out, they were right.

House ,Scrubs, and HGTV
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel the living room and add on a space. My dream home would be Closer to VAn Nuys.
LOVE and the importance of being a good parent
If I won $100 million, I'd give 99% of it of it to charity and family, then spend the rest on paying off my home, having just enough to live simply and not enable my family.
My current age is 38. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be old. I was so completely wrong.
Becoming a nurse practitioner after I raise my children
Not much time for style
I share my home with the nanny, which I find helpful.
no- trophies are gained up in heaven
In 10 years, I hope to be still alive. I'm going to get there by being healthy.
My first job was at Taco Bell, where I got paid 5 to 6 bucks an hour. What I remember most about it is how I was offered my first job at the drive-thru window. I was offered a medical assistant position..
