On July 5th 2013 I was hit by a boat propeller and ending up losing half the muscle in my right leg. After numerous surgeries and almost a month in the hospital I have worked extremely hard to walk and run again. Over the last 18 months I have built the strength back up in my leg and have no limitations - thank God! But I realize that I need to start building back the muscle so I can continue to have a great future.

As I have always been active - playing sports, doing karate, etc - I am exciting to start weight-lifting and seeing where my fitness can take me!

I love the feeling of being 'free'. Working out is MY TIME - it's fun, it's easy, and it's the one of the only times where I can completely let go and turn my mind off :)

Plus, I love the results and love the feeling of accomplishment after a great workout! :)
