I've been working out & eating clean my entire life on top of cheerleading, dance, gymnastics, soccer, track & field. I gained a strong interest in health especially after my first high school anatomy class and grew increasingly interest in college where I earned my BA in Exercise Science & Spanish at Transylvania University. I began instructing aerobics, personal training, and took on many jobs in athletic training, occupational therapy, physical therapy, nutrition, and athletics. Currently alongside a physics 2 course to prepare me for physical therapy graduate work (the original plan), I have entered the figure world. And we'll see what happens...
Why I Love It:
As a young girl, I would sit in my living room for hours & watch physique competitions & mimic the fitness moves. Originally, I planned on doing fitness (since I've had 15 years of skills experience)once I got my figure where it needed to be because I knew that would be triple preparation-nutrition, training, & skills!
How I Stay Motivated:
Well I just won my class & the overall's in my first figure competition (NPC Northern KY) which qualified me for nationals & has certainly motivated me! So, I'm going for Jr. Nationals 6/20 in Chicago, IL. Some have discouraged me, but IFBB pro Julie Lohre is telling me to go for it & I'm gonna listen to her-man what a sucessful woman that I sought out 2 years ago!
BB Accomplishments:
2008 NPC Northern KY Bodybuilding & Figure Championships Class D Winner and Overall Champ
