Sierra Reed wants to make it clear right off the bat that she has the ability to find her place in any situation, anywhere in the world, through her perseverance and strength. Despite the fact that she is strong-willed and determined, she is one who will wear her heart on her sleeve. Not intimidated by age, ("I'm 25 and if you're 45 that's great, but if we have differences, I'm going to let you know"), Reed will speak her mind, yet she does it with purpose and passion. She hopes that her tenacity will balance out her "strong nature."

This fashion student and model is no stranger to roughing it. After moving to Taiwan by herself at a very young age, Sierra is used to living in places with no running water and filled with grime and bugs. Sierra is a self-proclaimed adventure junkie who "loves to experience new things all the time" and she believes that those experiences make her a prime candidate for SURVIVOR.

Sierra claims she isn't a "very stereotypical model," because she doesn't do it for the notoriety; she does it because modeling can help facilitate new experiences and allows for travel to amazing locations which is something she enjoys tremendously.

Her modeling background has helped to shape her strategy for the game. Forced to deal with a variety of personalities all competing for the same goal is nothing new to her, having lived with five catty models vying for one spot. This experience will be to her advantage when forming alliances and making her way through the twists of the game.

Sierra is single and currently resides in Los Angeles, Calif. Her birth date is September 29.

Four San Diegans are back from "Survivor" and "Amazing Race"

Sierra Reed, Sydney Wheeler, Amanda Blackledge and Kris Klicka are all back at their day jobs now, but their thoughts are elsewhere

....

Sierra and Sydney drift now and then back to the jungles of Brazil, but they can’t say what exactly they did there. Not until, at least, the 18th edition of the CBS reality show “Survivor” begins airing Thursday, Feb. 12.
...

They’re all San Diegans, all contestants on the reality adventure shows, all sworn to secrecy about what happened during the filming, all absolutely forbidden from saying who won each competition.

Sierra is a 23-year-old model who grew up in Carlsbad and graduated from Carlsbad High School in 2004, but lives now in Los Angeles. She’s traveled the world on modeling assignments, and is starting up her own design practice. Recent jobs have taken her to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Germany and New Zealand. Not surprisingly, she agreed to be a “Survivor” contestant because, she said, “I’m a huge travel buff.”

As for Tocantins, the “Survivor” location in the Brazilian highlands, CBS describes it as “one of the most rugged locations ever visited” by the long-running hit (they say that every time), and that for 39 days the contestants battled “scorching temperatures, torrential downpours and dangerous wildlife.”

“I'm a little jet-setter,” Sierra said. “I love to experience new things all the time and this was definitely one of the most rare experiences I've ever had.

I'm waiting to see how it looks on TV. It changed my life forever in a really great way, in a really amazing way.”

Not that Sierra was eager to sign up for those 39 days of scorching temperatures etc. etc. “They asked me to go on the show,” she said. “I told them they were crazy. It wasn’t anything I was interested in before, but when they mentioned traveling I was all in.”

She discovered she liked the primitive life, at least for a little while. “There’s so much pressure here (in L.A.). It was a great experience to have that taken away, especially for somebody like me. I wanted to go back to the basics and just live. It’s something we never do any more.”

Ya!  Maybe she knows what she's talking about!  She seems like she knows everything.  She's not that competitive though.
She probably doesn't know what the heck she is talking about.
