On January 22nd, 1979 an angel was born in Newark, New Jersey to Rosalinda Mendoza and Roger Vinalon. At a very young age, her family relocated to Southern California then on to a small town called Elk Grove located outside of Sacramento. With two older brothers and a younger sister, she naturally became the glue that held them all together. As a middle child, distant among her siblings was never a problem. Time with family is not an option, but a priority.

During her highschool years, she became an active student at Elk Grove High. Joining the Asian Pacific Islander Club, she organized fundraiser events. She also got involved in political campaigns like running for Publicity Manager. Everyone remembered her lyrical rhymes over a Notorious B.I.G. "Big Papa" instrumental. With the help of her very skilled older brother RJ, she made a big impression among her classmates.

In the year of 1995, she picked up a hobbie in Djing. Following the era of DJ Q-bert, she was recruited by Team Tranzformerz that originated from the crew Majestik Soundz. Going under the alias "Roxspin", she made her debut appearance at Utopia (Sacramento State ) giving everyone a taste of her style in 1996.

As a quick learner, she picked up new scratches and techniques very easily. Most of the time, she would be behind closed doors rocking the turntables. Only a few were fortunate to be invited into a jam session.

Friday May 12, 1995, a relationship began with the love of her life (Gene Ballesteros). The relationship exceeded beyond everyone's expectations. As highschool sweethearts, they planned for the future together. Two souls became one mind facing the world of challenges.

Both attended Heald School of Business and Microsoft training. College degrees and certifications resulted in job placement at SBC Services Inc. They mirrored eachother's knowledge of the technology industry.

At the age of 22, she was ready to move forward into the next level of her life. Over dinner at her favorite restaurant (Nagato Sukiyaki), she proposed Gene in hand of marriage. After seven years of a loving relationship, the two soul mates planned a private wedding in the country of Japan in 2002. Both were ready to take on the world.
