I have always been physically active as a child. My mom and dad put me in all the sports you can think of. The sport I really suck with growing up was volleyball. In high school I didn't end up making the volleyball team. I was crushed, and I knew I had to do something that would keep me busy. My mother introduced me to lifting weights and I was immediately hook! It does help that she is a personal trainer, but I finally found who I am because of the gym, and I am proud of that person I am today!
I loved working out so much I knew I had what it takes to compete. I did my first NPC competition at the age of 17! It was such an accomplishment in itself, just to say I did a bikini show! I got first place in novice. After my first show I have decided to keep competing. Bodybuilding is what formed me into the person I am today! I love living a healthy lifestyle and pushing myself every day.
