Why did you become interested in fitness?
I've always been interested in fitness, I was a sprinter at LSU BUT I'd never really lifted weights. Since I used to be really thin (110-115), I wanted to change my physique. I did just that, I put on a little more than 15 lbs of muscle while being leaner than I have ever been before! Bev Francis is my role model, she's taught me alot about training and nutrition. My physique has blossomed under her tutelage.

When did you first start working out?
Three years ago.

What other physical activities do you enjoy to stay fit?
I rollerblade, bike, run sprints and play basketball (with my height I guess that's a no-brainer~smile).

What are your goals within the fitness industry?
I would like to continue to educate people about health & fitness, maybe even write a column for a fitness magazine.
