Ms. Altice competed for two years at SDSU while studying communications. She was named to the All-WAC Academic team in '99 for her sophomore season, during which she maintained in 3.85 GPA. Ms. Altice transferred to UCLA in Spring 2000 to continue her communications studies and further pursue her modeling career. (In '95 she won YM's cover girl contest, and later signed with Elite modeling agency.)

- [on Zalman King] "When you see a woman in his films, you know you're not going to just watch her walk a dog down the street".
- I'm the kind of person who just can't wait to get on a train and not know where I'm going. I definitely want to live life to the fullest. And that's the type of man I'm attracted to-somebody with that spontaneous spirit.
- People are taken aback by a confident, pretty girl who knows what she wants in life and isn't going to let anyone get in her way. And you know what it's all about? Jealousy.
- [on her nickname] "Being 5' 10", I was supposed to be too short to play college volleyball. So that gave me the hunger and the fire to say, Oh yeah? I'd just hit the crap out of the ball. I got the nickname Spitfire for a reason--I burned inside to play volleyball. I loved the competition of it."
