My fitness journey began when I was 40 and out of shape. I had been sedentary for 10 years with two children born in between. I can still recall the conversation with a friend at the gym with me saying, "This is what I want to look like. Like one of the girls in this magazine (Oxygen)". I formed a vision of myself that has now become my reality.

Since that time I have gone on to competing in Figure earning my pro card in my first Natural Figure competition. I'm currently competing at a national level with the NPC with the goal of earning my pro status with IFBB.

I love inspiring and helping others! I actively maintain an athletic page on Facebook as well a blog here on Bodybuilding.com. You are welcome to join me there for my fit chatter.

My gym time is sacred to me. It is the only time and place where it's all about me and I get to call the shots.
