== Career ==
Before Monster Jam, Cruz was a gymnast and competed in two Pan-American Games for the United States. She previously raced go-karts with her cousins.
Cruz's introduction to monster trucks came when she crewed for her brother when he was driving for Paul Shafer Motorsports. One time, Shafer let Cruz sit in Monster Patrol, and she became hooked and wanted to begin driving monster trucks.
Cruz's career began in 2007 when she drove Team Suzuki at Monsters at Bonneville.
In 2008, Cruz and Tony Wolf began driving Jetix trucks for U.S. Monster Jam shows. Wolf ran the Yin Yang Yo! scheme while Cruz's truck was given a W.I.T.C.H. scheme to differentiate them.
