GIFT GIVING MEME: Taking the OOC strain out of IC gift giving

It's that time of the year again when we stress out over what sort of gifts one fictional character should give to other fictional characters. Sometimes it's even more stressful than picking out gifts for your actual friends. Let's help each other out!

CHARACTER NAME:
WHAT DO THEY CELEBRATE?: Do they get swept up in the Christmas spirit? Do they LIGHT 'EM UP UP UP for eight nights? Is there a combination of different holiday traditions? Do they not celebrate at all?
GIFT-GIVING HABITS: Are they bad at choosing gifts? Have they ever been caught re-gifting gifts they didn't want? Do they always give gifts to each one of their roommates or are they bad at even remembering to give gifts to their best friend?
HOBBIES & INTERESTS: What would other people know about what they like? Do they have any themes or special interests they're known for? Ex: Levi likes Quidditch, music, dogs, and astronomy and his special interests (and aesthetic themes) are aliens and outer space.
IDEAL TYPE OF GIFTS: What sort of gifts would your character love to receive? Is there anything those close to them might realize that they could use? Do you have any links to items or lists to help us out? (If you google "Gifts for [Hobby]", sometimes there are already pre-made lists! For example, I could google "Gifts for reptile lovers" for Diego or "Gifts for astronomy lovers" for Levi and be rollin' in gift ideas. You can also search treasuries on Etsy!)
ANYTHING ELSE?: Anything you'd like to add to help with the fictional gift-giving process?

CHARACTER NAME: Susana Velasquez
WHAT DO THEY CELEBRATE?: Christmas, Wizard style but with strong nods to their Mexican heritage thrown in.
GIFT-GIVING HABITS: Ana is a very conscientious gift-giver. She has more friends now than ever before, but regardless of quantity, she goes for quality in her presents. There are a lot of them, though, because money has never been an issue and she wants her friends to know she loves them. It's not just about buying stuff, though. She takes time to think of what they like (see Hazel's birthday) Her main ones are Vic, Hazel, Garrett, Cole. Essie, Ree, and Pippa will also get things. And Sy. And Calvin <3

HOBBIES & INTERESTS: QUIDDITCH, QUIDDITCH, and QUIDDITCH. She does like shopping and heels. Anything cherry flavored. Any kind of sweet (especially chocolate). Beachy things.
IDEAL TYPE OF GIFTS: Quidditch or workout stuff. Anything related to Quidditch. Small nods to her heritage are always welcome, especially if it's food. Any types of booties/shoes. Any types of shopping stuff, including clothes or makeup or accessories.

ANYTHING ELSE?: If I missed your character and they and Ana are friends, I apologize. Let me know!
