When she was 7 years old, Krystina Gustafson would slide into her mom's high heels, saunter in front of the television and pretend to be Vanna White, "flipping" the letters on the screen.
"She had the walk down perfectly," said her mother, Mary Gustafson.
In December, the UF journalism senior accomplished what she said was one of her lifelong goals - to compete on "Wheel of Fortune."
The show will air tonight on CBS at 7 p.m. Gustafson said she is not revealing details about her success, so she can surprise her friends when it airs.
She began the tryout process, which consisted of two auditions, in October.
She got the call three weeks after her second audition.
"I didn't really think I'd make it," she said. "It had always been a dream, but I just went on a whim without expecting any results."
