Biography:
I was always athletic as a child -
spent many years as a gymnast, took swimming and played every team sport.
I wanted to be a competitive gymnast, but when I was 9 my parents divorced
and there just wasn't enough money to support it. I remember as a child
watching the Olympics wishing it were me. Now my drive to compete came
alive again when I went to my first local fitness/bodybuilding show. I
competed the next year in a local amateur bodybuilding show to get my feet
wet. Since then I have done a couple of fitness model shows and plan on
doing my first fitness routine in the near future.
I have been training for 14 years
since I worked at my first gym which introduced me to weight training. I
have since worked as a Personal Trainer in different clubs and currently
work with my husbands company in car exporting. I do the car customizing,
so that is the fun stuff! I love chrome rims!
I would like to do more fitness
modeling in the future.
