Hello, my name is Tina Ellis. I am 25 and currently reside in Iowa, where I was born and reared (Iowa is the land of corn and pigs--not potatoes.). My marriage of two years (and counting) to Anthony is a delightful experience. My son Paul and two step-daughters, Amber and Ashley, are also competing in pageants. We have all done well with our endeavors. I have earned the following titles:   Miss Iowa Achievement 1998 Mrs. Benton County America 1998 & 1999 National Miss Humanitarianism Award Winner 1998 Miss Iowa Tropical Kids 1997 Tropical Kids National Photo Winner 1998 1st Runner Up Tropical Kids Ms. Elegant 1998 1st Runner Up Mrs. Radiance World 1997
