Azucena Milagros Ortiz Castillo

Azucena grew up in the mountains of Peru, on the Ortiz Farm, where she learned the trade of coffee farming from her father. It was as a youngster growing up on the coffee plantation that she decided her dream was to be the world's best coffee farmer. Azucena experimented with cultivating different kinds of coffee plants, but her innovations were continually rejected by adults around her. Despite this, she continued her attempts, until eventually a strain of her coffee beans was awarded the highest rating at an international trade fair. As well as dedicating herself to farming practices, Azucena also cultivated her martial arts, becoming a champion MMA practitioner, and also a successful model and dancer. She attended the best university in the country, and studied business administration there. Azucena decided to use her martial arts to promote her own coffee brand, and rose to prominence in the American MMA scene, promoting her 'Azucena Blend'. Her business flourished as a result of the promotion, and the next step for her became the international circuit. The King of Iron Fist Tournament, the most popular international fighting tournament, caught her eye, and she intends to enter the next tournament when it is announced.
