I started with an ever-loving life’s kick in the pants, and the realization that I was not happy with my whole being. I struggled with my weight on and off for a large portion of my life, and within the past few years, made a concerted effort to feel good on the outside as well as the inside. I work with a various number of pageants and sports teams/fitness competitors, and through their determination and obvious physical excellence, put myself forward on a mission to build the best me, in all aspects.
Why I Love It:
From many different angles, I am actually quite a shy, withdrawn person. Outside of clients, friends and family, I live quite a solitary life. My new adventures into fitness allow me to participate socially, and to overcome certain deep-seated anxieties and shortcomings, which can build upon themselves year after year of life.
How I Stay Motivated:
People here on BodyBuilding.com and the models/contestants I shoot pictures of motivate me greatly. I am not looking to bulk up, but shred or lean up to a nice ‘corded’, ripped body; something to walk proud with, and feel physically on top of the world. Two of the sports teams I shoot for consist of women’s cancer survivors. Unbelievable and amazing results display from people who have been thrown some of life’s greatest challenges.
BB Accomplishments:
None yet...will share with everyone once they arrive.

As very few of you actually ‘know’ me just yet, I have struggled over a large part of my life to build the perfect me. I know there is much more to ‘me’ than the physical aspect, however, with self-confidence issues and a myriad of other hurdles, I look forward to fine tuning this...
Niice! Keep up the great work! And thank you for adding me to your most inspiring list! I don't train with Kathy..I met her last year when she competed and went to a show this weekend. Got to hang with her for a bit - that girl ROCKS!
Yes ~ I would love to!
I've been spending alot of time in Waterton Canyon running prepping for my 1st 1/2 marathon in October. Then in the gym getting ready for Vegas in a few weeks for the Olympia weekend! I am so excited! Let me know when you want to get together ~ I'd love to meet you and chat!

Hey George-thanks for the message! You are so kind to let me know you enjoy the web site! I'm sorry to hear you're dealing w/the motivation aspect for your workouts...I always say "When is the last time you left the gym & said...Dang, I wish I hadn't done that??"...never-try to focus on the feeling that comes afterward...not the feeling before. I've found that helps my motivation level :)
Hi George, I added you on MySpace also. I'd like to see some of your fitness photo work sometime as my wife (GeminiJedi) and I are looking to get some done possibly later this year around her contest time.
