The beginning of 2009 I wasnt happy with what I saw in the mirror and I decided, with the help of my personal trainer (Charles Dorsey, Jr., Owner, Dynamic Fitness), that I was going to do something about it. Through a strict diet and training regime my body started to change and we visited the idea of competing in figure. However, I was not quite able to develop my shoulders to be completive in figure. So, this year when bikini division was announced, I had no more excuses and entered a few shows in the NPC with the goal to compete in the Maryland State Bodybuilding, Figure and Bikini Show.

I love to see the changes in my body, the energy I obtain and the positive motivation that comes along with succeeding. I love reaching and exceeding my goals whether its 5 extra minutes on the treadmill or lifting 5 extra pounds that I wasnt able to lift the week before. I love that I have been an inspiration to my peers and that I have been able to make a positive lifestyle change in their lives through example. I also love to help others achieve their fitness goals!!
