CLICK HERE FOR MY RESUME

I was raised to live a very healthy lifestyle, exercise and healthy food was part of every day.

My mother is the reason I am involved in fitness and has always motivated me to make health and fitness a part of my life. She taught me that you must balance good nutrition with exercise, and be happy with who you are and what you have accomplished.

This is what led me to pursue a career in personal training, and the fascination with the bodies of fitness competitors. I admired the beautiful bodies of Monica Brandt, Kiana, and Cory Everson….but my lack of gymnastic abilities made this only a faint dream of being like them.

It was not until the Figure was introduced into the NPC, that the goal of achieving a body like theirs even seemed possible. I decided to at least see if I could really do it…the diet, the training, and to find confidence to get up on stage in front of an audience. I entered my first show in 2002, The Maryland State, where I took 2nd. I enjoyed the experience of my first show so much that I decided to continue to competing and dreamed of earning my pro card in figure.

After 4 years of competing, I finally achieved my goal of becoming an IFBB Professional by winning the Overall Title at Figure Nationals in August of 2005. I am looking forward to competing at the pro level where I hope to one day walk across the stage of the Olympia.

I am also a personal trainer at a gym in North Miami. I love my job because I truly enjoy helping my clients achieve their fitness goals. I feel fulfilled everyday through my work. Knowing that I am making a difference in others lives and that I am an inspiration to them, keeps me motivated to continue to reach for my own goals.

I love every aspect of health and fitness. I am fascinated by the physiology behind every exercise I do and the effect everything I eat and drink has on my body. I never lose sight of my goals. I believe that to reach your goals you must have balance in every aspect of life. My drive, dedication and positive mental attitude helped me achieve my expectations and will continue to do so.
