I have always been active since I was very young, but, until 2013, never really set foot in a gym – sure, I had joined them before, participated in a group exercise class every now and then, but never had I truly appreciated what could be achieved there.

In December 2014, it was a year since I joined Gold’s gym and started my journey. When I try to pin point exactly what triggered my new lifestyle, I struggle a little. It wasn’t one particular thing, and it certainly wasn’t unhappiness. I believe it was a combination of intrigue and my love for a challenge.

I have now competed in fitness competitions for over 6 years, in several federations and always aim high. I do not know where the future will lead, but I'll keep on moving!

It challenges the mind, body and spirit. I love that!
