Biography:
I am a fitness model, dance
instructor, writer and actress. As the creator of “Making Fitness Fun” weight
training DVD, I am also co-producer and presenter of a new fitness show, “Peelers” which is quickly gaining interest amongst broadcasters. In 1998 I
self produced the worlds first instructional pole dance video making me a
pioneer of what’s now America’s latest fitness craze, pole dancing for fitness.
I have appeared on the cover of Muscle Mag International, Body of Science,
Canadian Health & Fitness, Body Talk and in Muscle & Fitness, Oxygen, Flex,
Ironman, Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness, Ms. Fitness and many others including
Playboy’s special editions 4 times, including Playboy’s Best of Canadian Girls
2004 calendar.
In 2005 I has made her first
appearance on the American stage, placing 3rd at the Emerald Cup, and
the following week competed in the PNC Pittsburg Amateur & Pro Show. The BC
Championships on Aug 6th 2005 (re-qualifying for the Canadian
Nationals in 2006) will be my last show this year. Goal: earning my Pro Card as
a Figure competitor.

What makes a great fitness model?
A
great fitness mode is patient, polite and punctual.
What did you do to become a model?
I
entered model searches (Malibu Body Wear) and mailed my photos and resume to
several photographers that were listed in one of Oxygen’s first issues as people
who were looking for new faces. I have shot several shoots a year for
publications such as American Curves, Muscle & Fitness, and Muscle Mag, and have
self produced a weight training DVD.
What are the benefits to being a fitness model?
Motivation to others and myself. I enjoy the dedication to the lifestyle being a
fitness model brings.
What is your favorite things about being a fitness model?
Having a fit body is an obvious but I know that others look up to me as an
example. In Victoria where I live, I am told often that I am the local
celebrity. It’s strange since I simply try to take care of my body, which is
something I think more people should do. If that makes me a celebrity in some
peoples eyes then I am flattered. I am happy to set an example to young women,
and all people interested in improving their health.
How do you stay beautiful?
First word that came to mind is drinking water and sleeping 7 – 8 hrs a night.
Next up, is having an open mind and spirit. “You can’t direct the winds but you
can adjust your sails.” I do my best to look at everything in a positive light,
rather then hold onto negative energy.
How do you stay fit, do you have a personal trainer, chef, work out, what do you
do?
It’s a simple case of consistency. Most of the time I train alone, and for my
diet I cook my meals the day before and
store in containers. I train with weights 5 times a week, and do 20 - 40 minutes
of cardio (bike, treadmill, stairmaster) after my weight training. 4 – 8 weeks
before a figure contest I will do cardio in the morning before eating. Please visit my site for more detailed information.
Do you prefer to tan or use tanning lotion?
I
use tanning beds 1 – 2 days a week, and will increase that amount as the show
comes closer. For shoots I will use SUN, and for contest I use Pro Tan, however
I never tan my face. I use self tanning lotions, putting them on before bed. MAC
is great for matching faces tones with a tanned body.
First Interest In Fitness/Bodybuilding
I
competed in bodybuilding in 1999, however when figure was introduced I knew that
is what I wanted to compete in. Since 2003 I have been competing in figure.
Goal Within The modeling/ Fitness Industry
My
goal is to continue being published, and to expand my personal training company.
Years ago I really wanted to get a cover, and that dream was met with Muscle
Magazines March, 2003 issue. Thank you Robert Kennedy.
Life Goals
I
would like to be a wonderful wife and mother.
Special Skills:
Pole dancing, freestyle wrestling, volleyball, and playing clarinet.
