Background:

I was born in Washington DC and raised in the suburbs of the DC metro area in Bowie, MD. I attended Towson University in Maryland and received a BS in Accounting. I got my CPA license in 1985 and worked for 10 plus years in the accounting industry. I branched off into the area of Recruiting and received a MS in Human Resources. My last corporate position was as a Director of American Express TBS in Towson MD. I left my corporate career and have since aspired to become a personal Trainer.

I started my career as a personal trainer a year ago and got a certification from the American Council of Exercise with CPR training and First Aid certifications. I work almost exclusively from my home gym where I train athletes looking to build strength agility and core and also adults looking to become leaner, stronger and healthier.

My interests are: weightlifting, competition in figure competitions, dance, modeling, watching my children's sports activities, watching movies, and I love exploring new beaches and finding new vacation spots every year.

My main objective in modeling is to gain a new perspective for fit women regardless of age. To be a role model to women that aspire to having children and those that have had children to be able to find their body's resilience and beauty by strength training and proper nutrition. I would like to focus my modeling on fitness, swimsuit, and lingerie.

In addition to modeling, I aspire to become an IFBB Figure Pro. I love competing and defining my body. I am a former Washington Redskins Cheerleader and was with the Redskins when they won Super Bowl XVII against the Miami Dolphins. I have not lost the desire to be on stage and perform and the figure competitions allow this expression on an individual basis.
