Background

I earned my I.F.B.B. professional fitness status at the 2000 NPC Team Universe Championships. I am currently training for all of the I.F.B.B. professional fitness shows in the year 2002----wish me luck! My involvement in bodybuilding and fitness stems from a thirteen year elite-level career in gymnastics.

I attended Chantilly High School, where I was a member of the internationally recognized show choir that was voted first in the nation by Downbeat magazine. I was a member of the gifted and talented program, where I tied with another woman for the prestigious title of Valedictorian, closing a four-year secondary school career with over a 4.0 GPA.

I then accepted a vocal scholarship at the University of Virginia, where I studied Molecular Biology, Music with a specialization in Vocal Performance, and the Spanish language. I completed three years at the University of Virginia before transferring to George Mason University, where I completed a double major in Molecular Biology and Music, and a minor in Spanish. I finished my master's degree in molecular biology at George Mason University in August of 2000.
