mitra and becca are opposites in lots of ways--mitra is more of a mediator than an instigator, but she's a fashion designer who worked her ass off to get her own line of dresses launched. she's the eldest of four and was a bit of your stereotypical art student in that she didn't really care for any other subject but could macgyver her way around all kinds of fabric. she's very close with her family and especially with her yaya, even though all they do is argue when they're around each other. she's independent, creative, stubborn, passive-aggressive, charismatic, quick-witted.
