What is your favorite childhood memory? 

My dad would take my sisters & me camping every year.  He taught us how to shoot his rifle & how to bait our fishing hooks. I loved spending time with my dad!

 

Name a song that motivates you. 

Lose Yourself. Eminem.

 

What is your biggest gym pet peeve? 

I can’t stand it when people leave their weights on the machines.  It’s rude to not clean up after yourself.  I never know if they’re doing a superset or if they’re actually finished & left their mess for someone else to clean up!  Ugh! 

 

How do you like to reward yourself?

If I stay on point with my diet & gym routine for a month, I’ll go buy myself new lingerie. I love to purchase new styles as my body changes!

 

If you could change one thing about the world what would it be?                                                                    

 I would end reality TV.  Seriously, we could all live without The Bachelor/Bachelorette!

 

What do you do right before you step onstage?    photo 2

You’ll catch me chatting it up with the other gorgeous competitors in line, dancing and taking pics with them!  It’s a celebration of all our hard work & dedication the last few months!  I’m excited & nervous at the same time!  Show time baby!    

                     

Nook, Book or Kindle?Mmmm, I’m old school.  Book for sure!

 

Competition history: NPC Bikini Masters 35+ San Diego March 16, 2013

 

Next competition: Spartan San Diego May 3, 2014                 

 

If someone followed you for the day what would they be most surprised about?                                

They’d probably be surprised that I sing all the time!  I can’t carry a tune but I sing in the car, in the grocery store, at work….there’s always something going on that reminds me of a song!

 

 What is your preferred tanning product and why?  I’m loving SJolie right now!  I have my own airbrush equipment so I just airbrush once a week!  I love that I can rinse within 4 hours!  No sticky skin or smell, plus it’s the perfect shade for my fair skin.  No orange or streaking!

 

Favorite Quote: “If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not people or things.”  Albert Einstein

 

Who would yphoto 3ou like to thank?                                      

 My biggest thanks goes to my two supportive sons, Brian & Joshua for always pushing me to run longer or bike further with them!

A huge thanks to my best friend & amazing husband of 14 years, Jeff, for supporting me & helping out with our boys while I spend endless hours in the gym & kitchen prepping meals.  He puts up with my mood swings on low carb days & encourages me to stay on track when I want to give up! 

Thank you to my amazing network of fitness friends & family who support me! Thank you to my coach, Jennifer Rawls, Team Dazzle, for taking me under her wing!  Assault Gear Athletic Clothing for believing in me & sponsoring me!
