Ruby Carestio: Studio Assistant

Ruby is an encouraging young lady, not only does she encourage others but also encourages herself. She is also eager to do whatever it takes to have fun with her and her friends. Ruby loves school and is very fond of tests. She loves to get crafty and messy, but sometimes she just likes to chill out and read a book. Ruby loves cats, Muay-thai training, and anything fun. Ruby is a colorful person, but when it comes to make-up and clothes, she's more neutral.
