A Conversation with Candi

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

• I love the Kissimee area and was so proud to represent my hometown of Kissimee, but I know I'll always be a city girl at heart. If I could live anywhere in the world, at least part time, it would be New York City. There is something just so magical about that place.

​

If you could meet anyone in the world, who would they be?
