For those of you who don't know me, I am an IFBB Pro Fitness competitor, Registered Labor and Delivery Nurse, certified personal trainer with my own business "Toughfitness Personal Training", I am a wife of 13 years, and a mother of 2 beautiful children. I have a very busy life... and I LOVE it!!!!!!!
I have always been a very active individual. My passion was gymnastics and dance for most of my childhood, then came tennis and cheerleading in high school, and eventually weight lifting during college.
All of this brought me to my journey of fitness competitions.
Please feel free to enjoy my website, and don't forget to check out my journal entries... be prepared because I tend to be a little... "unfiltered" You will hear a lot about raising kids, training, and all of the other crazy stuff my family and I do. Enjoy!

A FEW WORDS OF THANKS
I want to thank my husband Trent for all of his love and support. We have grown so much in our journey together. I could never have gotten to where I am today without you! You are my rock.
Thank you to my beautiful children, who gave up many hours of ???mommy time??? to allow my workouts, cardio sessions, food preparation, and routine practice. YOU are my greatest accomplishment. I am so proud of you!
To my mother Linda, for always believing in me. You are the best coach, and best friend anyone could ask for. I definitely know where my strength comes from.
To my Daddy, I know you are not with me physically, but I feel your loving presence and strength every day. Thanks for watching over me.
I could never have achieved my goals of fitness without the help of my nutritionist Pete Grubbs. He and his wife Apple run CONSTRUCTION ZONE. They believe in me more than I believe in myself! If you need help with competition preparation and nutrition, contact Pete and Apple. I will have their link on my contact page.
To my friend and mentor Tanji Johnson, I am so thankful for your support and guidance. You are proof that a competitor does not have to compromise their principals to do well in this industry. I can't wait to see you win the Olympia!
A special thank you to my lifting partner Sharon, who kicks my butt on a weekly basis, and I love her for it! You are such an inspiration to me.
