I was born in January 15th, 1987 in Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA at United Hospital, to parents Kristine Anne Costa and James Brent Costa. I am the second and last child in the family, including my other brother Peter Allen Costa.
I lived my first two years in Saint Paul on Wheeler (address to be confirmed by @kris Jarvi Costa.) Our family purchased and constructed a house in the suburbs of SE Saint Paul in Mahtomedi. I lived at 441 E. Juniper Ct. 55115 from the ages 2-9, where we then left MN and journeyed to the SW USA, in Arizona.
The Costa Family arrived in Gilbert, AZ on June 24, 1996 where we lived in an apartment (Vista Montana apts) until we found our new home 2314 E. Indigo Bay Dr. Our family collectively shopped around together until we found a house that met our needs including a swimming pool.
I started elementary school at Val Vista Elementary in the 4th grade with Mrs. Zazick. Continued with my elementary education with 5th grade Mrs. Gordon and 6th grade Mr. Buchanan. I then attended Highland Jr. High School. Making friends for me was not always easy. The start different between a small town in MN vs a medium sized suburb of Phoenix was starkly different....
