History From Past Survivor
Alicia was a threat to the men and woman of the tribe as she was faster, stronger and more able to win immunity challenges that the entire Okagor team decided she was to get the Boot. Alicia became the first member of the Jury, and will be apart of the vote to decide the winner.
Early Show quote: "I'm definitely a real focused person, and when I set my mind to something, I definitely can do it. I have to be really careful about coming on too strong, cause that is naturally what will happen. If I step back and try to become people's friends — which is easy for me to do — I think I won't be as threatening."
