Getting Started

I have always been interested in the biomechanics and physiology of the body. As a result I earned my degree in Exercise Physiology from Ohio University. During college I competed in a fitness competition but later decided that I wanted to compete in bodybuilding. After my bodybuilding shows, I was uncertain of what I wanted to pursue, so I started training strongwoman events with my sweetheart Jesse. After I trained for about two months I decided to compete at Arts show in Boston. The original plan was that Jesse and I meet in Boston and spend the weekend together (I had not moved to WA yet). However Nick C, Sarge, and Grant H told me that if I didn't compete I was a wimp. Needless to say I had to compete. Now I love it!

Goals

Since I won the amateur division I plan on moving to the pro division. My goals for the next year include becoming stronger, and faster. I am going to put a lot of pressure on myself to perform to the best of my capabilities.
