Background
 |
Coming from a fitness background, I am no stranger to the dedication, hard work, and total mental focus that it takes to compete in fitness/figure, or in general personal fitness. I was a tomboy as a child, and played volleyball in jr. and sr. high school, so fitness was passion for me at an early age. Working in various health clubs and gyms during college, I became a professional at age 18, and haven't looked back. I am a Pro Fitness Support Coach, with several years experience and expertise under my belt, and I design programs to fit personal and individual needs. Nutritional counseling is also part of my professional insight on fitness. I am certified by the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America, as well as the American Council on Exercise for Professional Fitness Training and Counseling, I am also certified in Aerobic and Weight Training Instruction by the same associations. In addition, I hold a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration from Florida State University.
I live in Clemmons, North Carolina.
I had personally been competing in fitness for 6 years prior to retiring in 2002 due to hectic travel and work schedule; however, I came out of retirement in 2006 when travel was no longer a requirement for my job. My goal is to be the best competitor I can be. Competing is very rewarding and it helps very much to keep me focused and positive. However, the road to the stage was not an easy one. Being committed to your goal is of a high priority.
Currently, I hold two regional titles that I obtained in 1999 before retiring. However, after coming out of retirement in 2006 I placed 1st in Fitness Tall Class and 3rd in Figure C Class a tremendous comeback for me. I possess a whole new commitment to the sport. I endured a tragic accident in 2004 that fractured my hip. It had broken in two. I was never supposed to be able to walk right, or run again, much less even think about competing. Being an athlete, that is a hard lump to swallow. The road to recovery was a very difficult one, but I endured and I proved all my doctors wrong by not only recovering 100% from my injury but also by coming out of retirement to compete again only 2 years later, and winning 1st place in my class in Fitness and 3rd place in my class in Figure, it was a very proud and emotional moment for me. A tremendous accomplishment. My trainer Mike Davies, brought my lacking thigh muscle out of atrophy, and extremely weak legs suffered from trauma and major surgery back to full capacity, and I am forever grateful for the help and training that he provided for me. I am stronger and look better than I ever have before. Today, my goal is to continue to build and define my legs for National Level readiness. 2008 Competition year is going to be spectacular. I am looking forward to it with great anticipation.
I had appeared on ESPN, and Entertainment Tonight, as well as Ms. Fitness Magazine, NPC Magazine, and various newspapers along the East Coast from New York to Florida, the West Coast from Nevada to California in the past. I had also been a guest speaker on some local radio stations. I write fitness and nutrition articles for BodyBuilding.com, which I am very proud of. I was an advocate for The City of Hope for AIDS Awareness for three years.
I am currently, putting together final plans for opening a support center to be home based in Winston-Salem, NC for Fitness Athletes, and Figure/Bikini Competitors as well as Male and Female Bodybuilders to have another great resource to the stage. In addition, fitness support to the general public fitness enthusiasts who need encouragement, support, and motivation in achieving their personal fitness goals as well. It's going to be quite an exciting venture for anyone who is maintaining a fit and healthy lifestyle. I will also be an Initiation Leader for FAME Camps to qualify competitors from Level 1 and advance them to Level 2. It is an honor to be part of that. My support club will launch its grand opening in the very near future.
Mentoring other women and men toward their goals in competing, also in general health and well-being gives a true feeling of satisfaction and pride. The experience has been nothing short of delightful. I am thrilled that I made the tremendous effort to experience fitness competing past, and present.
My efforts now, are to be the best I can be as well as help others reach their goals in competing which is not only exciting, but extremely fulfilling. It makes me very happy and proud to get the feedback from the many women that I have assisted along this path who are doing extremely well in their own efforts to succeed in the very competitive fitness/figure competition world, as well as my general fitness enthusiasts.
I encourage everyone to stay active and lead a healthy lifestyle. Nothing is more important than your personal health and well-being. Goals can be set and accomplished if you set them realistically and dedicate yourself to them, and stay open minded to ever changing world of bodybuilding development.
