Describe your path to the pro ranks.

I was a bodybuilding enthusiast starting in 1985. From the moment I started training I wanted to compete but at the time I was a music student (Berklee College of Music) and singer in rock bands.

For 22 years I trained but the lifestyle I was living was not conducive to a successful competition prep by any means. Then in 2008 when my husband and I retired from playing out I cleaned up my eating/drinking habits. It was on my bucket list to compete and I finally did in April of 2009 at 42.

Competing on the amateur level wasn’t hard because I had 22 years of mature muscle I finally uncovered a genetically decent symmetry. I won my first show and a pro card. I then went on to win two more shows in the next two months on the amateur level.

I wasn’t quite sure what to do at this point not knowing anything about competing or even fully understanding the importance of drug tested events. I took the 2010 season to do my research and competed 8 times as a Pro. This wasn’t easy at all. I am small. My conditioning was good and my quad separation was good but I lacked muscle everywhere else. Competing and dieting that much also contributed in some hard-earned muscle loss. I traveled to shows and charged some serious expenses. I learned many things.
