Greetings! My name is Misty Yanish and I am 32 years old. Friends and family sometimes like to call me "Misty Dawn" or "MD". I am Originally from Maple Lake, Minnesota, but now reside in St. Cloud, Minnesota in my own apartment which is in a building that is completely accessible. I also live with my cat Angel who I love very much. At an early age, I was diagnosed with Spastic Diplegia, which is a form of Cerebral Palsy. I have felt that having this disability has been a learning experience and every day is a new challenge. Despite this being a challenge, I am still very active. I have a background in Child and Adult Care and Education from St. Cloud Technical College. In 2005 I had the privilege to be a judge for the 2005 National American Miss Pageant, I had a great time and all of the people were great!
