Oringally from Beavercreek,OH.I have always been a competitive athlete but after having 2 children I wanted to get back into the grind.I have now found a passion in staying healthy & fit not only for myself but my children.Found the love of competing in shows in April 2009 when I began training formy 1st show only 5 weeks out & hope to continue with the aspirations of being a Fitness Model & get my Pro Card. Waiting for Mr Right to find me and understand the lifestyle I live and hopes to enjoy a Fit life with me.
Why I Love It:
Besides making me feel great & being able to keep up with my 5 yr old daughter, 9 month old son,it makes me feel awesome getting on that stage knowing I worked hard to get there.
It makes me feel good, its part of my life now, it makes me feel in control and worry free when I'm in the gym! Fitness isn't just a hobby its a lifestyle!-EM
How I Stay Motivated:
Looking at pictures of me in the past as an athlete and wanting that perfect body back. My children.
I dedicate all my accomplishments to my babies for they give me the best reason to stay fit. I must not only be their best role model as a single mother of two but teach them to follow my footstep and lead a healthy and fit life.
BB Accomplishments:
Getting as far as I have in the 1st 5 months of training, competing in 5 shows and bringing home 5 tropies including a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place placings, and placing 9th in my first National Show.

As all fellow Military Vets Elijah has really inspired me with all of his published features and his own personal training program. Like him I hope to down the road get more publications like the one I'm doing for HUSH Society magazine. HUSHMagazine.Net
Being a Rookie in this sport this year and competing in the FAP first my first show and only days from my second in the NPC, Ava who just took the 2009 Figure Universe Overall as the Champion is a huge Role Model to me. One day I hope to have the honor to share the same stage competing in the Fitness Division.
Why I like this video: This video I have watched at 5:00am every morning as a self motivation video to keep my pumped. Brian is a very good friend of mine who on a daily basis reminds me to stay focused but have fun doing it.
Yup only 14 more days until I hit that stage for the 3rd time. I will be competing in the NPC Virginia/DC State show. I honestly don't even feel nervous anymore. I will be showing the ropes to a first time competitor in my division in the next two weeks. That's kinda a big deal for me that...
im coming in on the 11th on the mac flight. Leaving here about 1 pm and prolly getting there late. i need to drive to Washington Bethesda the next morning so i need to stay the night in VA for the night.
