    About me:

     was born and raised in Palm Beach County, Florida. I spent most of my younger years at the Jill’s Dance Center in Jupiter, Florida. While I was very active in dance, I never participated in traditional sports growing up. My parents tried to put me in soccer when I was young, but they said I complained about getting sweaty. I guess you could say that I did not find my inner athlete until later in life.

    Once I got to college and as I began my career, dance took a backseat and I stayed active in other ways. From running to Pilates, I was always happier when I was in motion. However, as my career progressed, I lost sight of that.

    As a young woman trying to make it in business, I invested all of my energy into my career. As a result, my life was completely out of balance. I was working crazy hours and traveling weekly. Worn out, eating poorly, barely fitting in exercise two times a week and extremely grumpy, I had no time or energy for family, friends or myself. I needed to take control of my life, but I did not know where to start.

    In June of 2007, my husband and I attended the Mid-Florida Bodybuilding, Fitness and Figure Championships. While there, I met Shannon Dey, an IFBB Pro and Founder of Bombshell Fitness, who suggested that I attend her camp to learn about training for Figure Competitions. At that moment, I decided that training for a competition was going to be the first step in taking my life back.

    The training and dieting forced my to re-prioritize and re-organize my life. As a result, I become more efficient in my work, and I was no longer neglecting myself. Amazingly, by taking better care of myself, I was a better wife, friend, daughter and employee.

    Now, I am absolutely in love with the hardcore regimen required for competing. The training and nutrition challenges me mentally, physically and emotionally. The regimen is not easy, but the results are absolutely worth the effort and sacrifices. This is not just something I do, it is a part of who I am.

    God has blessed me with the ability, fortitude and support system to create a new lifestyle for myself. I am so grateful for what this change has done for me, and I hope to help empower other women to incorporate fitness and good health practices in their lives, so that they can feel confident, happy and in control.

    A special thanks to my husband, parents, friends, Shannon Dey, Rob Rosetti and the Bombshell Girls for all their love and support!
