First Interest
In Fitness/Bodybuilding
I was a skinny 90 lbs. runner my Soph. year in H.S.
I hated looking that way and desperately wanted to
have
some curves.
My brother, Brad, who is a good amateur bodybuilder
persuaded me to start wt. training. Within one month
I had joined
my local YMCA and I was hooked from then on out.
Goal
Within The Fitness Industry
I would like to continue representing a healthy fit
lifestyle for myself and to others who need motivation.
I would
like to continue doing guest appearances along
with some modeling
work for magazines, etc. Competing will always
remain a hobby for me and I have no intentions of making
it my main
source
of income. My true passion is becoming a Registered
Pharmacist, which I will graduate in the year of
2011 with a Doctorate
of Pharmacy degree.
Pre-contest
Diet
Here is a one day sample...I don't eat the same
thing everyday...... I use a lot of variety and
include
a cheat day once a week
all the way up until 3 weeks out from a show.....
that is a pig out meal where I eat anything and
everything!!!
Before Breakfast: 5gm. Twinlab creatine/ glutamine/
2gm. Twinlab pyruvate
Cardio: eliptical climber 30-45min.
After Cardio: 1.5gm. HMB (Twinlab); Myoplex or
Met-rx meal replacement; 250mg. alpha-lipoic
acid
Meal 2: 7 egg whites; 1 c. cooked oats with sweet/low;
2 tsp flax oil; 2 chitosan (for fiber)
 Weight
Workout: legs (before workout: 5gm. glutamine/creatine/ ZMA)
**Wts. take 50-60min.
After Workout: Myoplex or Met-rx mrp; alpha; pyruvate

Month 2: Cardio 4-5X week for 45min.
Month 3: Cardio 5X week for 60min. (2 separate sessions of
30min.a piece).
Wt. Schedule
Mon. (Chest): Tues: (Back) Wed: (Rest) Thurs: (Legs) Fri.
(Arms) Sat.: Shoulders Sun. (Rest)
Off-season
I have the same wt. training schedule, however, I do Back
and Shoulders together, which gives me an extra day of
rest
*****I don't do any cardio off-season besides being my
usual playful self. This allows me to grow and get stronger
since
the cardio isn’t wearing my body down. Therefore,
when I do start cardio pre-contest my body really responds
to it and it
helps me get really lean since my body is not use to doing
it year-round. Here in Hawaii, it isn’t hard staying
active. I love playing at the ocean, paddling, hiking,
boating, etc.
Favorites
 Favorite
body part to work: Arms
I love working arms because the visualization of seeing the muscles
pump up is unbelievable! Besides, my triceps being one of my
better body parts.
Ideal vacation: It def. has to have lots of sand, sunny beaches,
with loads of sunshine. A bottle of fine red wine and of course
the one I love right by my side. We would spend a quiet romantic
night together dining on wonderful food, drinking our wine, and
loving every moment of each other's presence!
Least favorite food: sushi.....yuck! I don't like catfish, crab,
or lobster either unless it is breaded or has slews of sauce
on top of it.lol! I only go to Red Lobster to eat the cheddar
biscuits…HA!
Ideal Man: Caring, loving, non-arrogant, loves to cuddle,fit,
open-minded, honest, trustworthy, considerate, and understanding.
Of course I wouldn't mind a fit body with dark hair and eyes,
a few tattoos and drives a Harley but personality def. comes
first. I’m not too picky overall.
Relationship Status: Single but unavailable…Are you kidding
I’m way too busy with school, work, and working out!
Personality: Easy going, friendly, open-minded, and honest
Things I hate: People who brag, dishonest people, back stabbers,
and jealous people. Besides that I hate flying mainly because
I get motion sick.

etc. They are so cute, gentle, and timid! Too lovable!
 Favorite
food: Chinese food is the bomb! I especially like the crab
ragoon and general tso’s chicken!

cut-off top or tank top. My favorite tank-top is my pink Under-rated
tank top. Pre-contest I like to wear hotskins shorts with my

love to drive fast! I also just purchased a brand new custom
designed motorcycle!!!

ever had.

and works your entire body.

currently pursuing a doctorate pharmacy degree while living
in Hawaii. I already have a bachelor degree in Dietetics that
I obtained from Ball State University in 2002. I have been
lifting thirteen years, competing for 9 years. During those
years I competed in bodybuilding off and on for five years
and figure for 4 years.
