This is the sixth in a series introducing you to members of the Falcons' cheerleaders squad.

Name: Cecilia

Occupation: Compliance manager for a staffing firm.

Education: Studied early childhood education at Kennesaw State.

Favorite Falcons moment: Every single time that we score a touchdown. Those are special moments because the crowd goes wild. It's like a party in the Dome. It's really loud. Every time we get a touchdown that is really the highlight of the game.

How long have you been a Falcons cheerleader: Fourth season.

Coolest part of being a cheerleader: The friendship that we get from our teammates. It's really like the sorority that I never had in college. It's been great to experience these four years with them. I'm excited to have a great season.

Come back each week of the season to meet another member of the Falcons' cheer squad.

The cheer squad: Megan | Macy | Amy | Dana | Kristen | Cecilia
