Charla & Mirna "Cousins"
« on: June 26, 2004, 06:11:46 PM »

Charla & Mirna are first cousins from Phoenix and Towson, Maryland, respectively. Both are Armenian and were born in the same hospital in Syria, one month apart. They emigrated to the United States when they were young children. Charla & Mirna know that physically they are quite different, but say they "fill each other's gaps with strengths and weaknesses." In addition, between the two of them, they speak a variety of languages, including Armenian, Turkish, French and Spanish, and have traveled extensively to foreign countries.

Charla says she is married to the man of her dreams and is manager/co-owner of ten sportswear stores. She has a form of dwarfism and says she “certainly does not consider it a limitation.” In fact, she says she hopes “to show the world what I can do and break all stereotypes about dwarfs!”

Mirna is an attorney who graduated from the University of Maryland School of Law at age 23, the youngest in her class. While she describes herself as “sometimes too competitive, strong-willed and ambitious,” she blows off steam by doing some favorite activities such as running and cycling. Mirna also claims to be a frequent winner at blackjack tournaments.

Charla & Mirna describe themselves as "a unique team, definitely one of a kind, extremely comical and aggressive" and are excited about competing in THE AMAZING RACE 5 so that they can travel around the world and win.
