Yoanna House was most recently host of the television show Queen Bees which aired on The N Network. Queen Bees was a reality program where teenage girls compete in different challenges, all with the intent of the girls learning a lesson about the way they treat people in their lives.

Previously Yoanna was host of The Look for Less on The Style Network, where she helped guests re-create runway outfits on a set budget.

She has also been a reporter and host on several specials, including E!'s fashion week special where she has interviewed celebrities and designers.

In addition, Yoanna is currently a digital entertainment correspondent and spokesperson for the CW Network. Yoanna appears on all of their new media platforms promoting their primetime programming and interviewing CW celebrities.

Yoanna was discovered on CW's (formerly UPN) hit reality series, America's Next Top Model. Given her ultimate win after the program's second season and after many weeks of nationwide exposure, Yoanna has become a household name. Her success story is one of true dedication, perseverance and commitment to realizing one's dreams.

Born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, Yoanna has always had a huge interest in fashion. As a child, she would watch CNN's Style with Elsa Klensch with her grandmother and put on fashion shows for her cousins. A self-described fashion fanatic, she got her first subscription to Vogue at age 10.

Yoanna, whose mother is Mexican, is fluent in Spanish and speaks conversational Japanese. In fact, she attended the University of Florida, studying International Relations and Asian Studies. She was recently featured as one of Latina Magazine's "It Girls", which gave her a chance to celebrate her Mexican heritage.

Before participating in America's Next Top Model, Yoanna worked as a nanny. She enjoys working with children and has had several opportunities to work with children's charities, including Children's Day Artrageous and The Make-A-Wish Foundation.
