Why
did you become interested in fitness?
As long as I can remember I have always loved to dance, jump and
exceed in life. So, when I first saw a fitness competition I knew
it was a sport I was going to love. The first show I saw was the
Fitness America Pageant in 1996, so Kelly Ryan became my first
role model.
When
did you first start working out?
I start working out at 24 years old and it was to lose 25 pounds
of extra weight.
At
the beginning I did a lots of aerobics and I started to teach
step classes. I started weight training at 30 years old, and at
this point I had no idea I will going to do fitness competition
one day. A guy at the gym said to me I should try a fitness competition.
It became a challenge for me and eventually I did my first competition
only 6 weeks after, and I totally fell in love with the sport.
Then, I decided to start gymnastics training. Starting gymnastics
at 31 year old was not easy because I never had gymnastics training
before.
What
other physical activities do you enjoy to stay fit?
In the summer time I love to do mountain biking and a little bit
of swimming. In winter time it's down hill skiing.
What
are your goals within the fitness industry?
Become a role model for girls who want to do fitness competitions.
Inspire and help those who want to get in good shape and have
a healthy life style.
I
would also really love to have my Question & Answer info in
a magazine like Monica Brant, Kelly Ryan, etc.
Additional Notes
I want to say a big thank you to all my friends and family, in
particular my boyfriend Christian for all the support he has always
given me. I will say thank you to my sponsor Super Natural Nutrition
and also to Jeff and Mindy from World Natural Sports Organization.
They are soooooo nice with everybody, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING.
