About me:

Ok, to start off, I am a born & raised SOUTHERN TX chick. Yesss, I grew up having cows, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, goats (blah blah) so, haha, that's out in the clear. Taught me a lot of responsibility & work value at a young age, however, plus they were fun to chase around! Secondly, since we are on my young years, I have been extremely competitive & athletic since as far back as I can remember. My first sport was baseball, & I was the only girl on the team. I showed those boys what was up tho.. Hit homeruns almost everytime! Continued throughout school & played softball, basketball, volleyball, track, powerlifting.. And I was very successful in each sport. Which brings me to my current love & passion (aside from food): BODYBUILDING! Sure, I'll admit, I started off figure.. but after receiving the same critiques: YOU'RE TOO MUSCULAR, LEGS R TOO BIG.. I made the switch to the DARK SIDE: BODYBUILDING. Oh, how I love it! Being able to diet HARD, train HARD, create a personality on stage.... IT'S TRULY AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE LIKE NONE OTHER!! In addition to my goal of attaining my PRO CARD, I focus my energy within the sport to transforming the world of female bodybuilding into an arena that represents SEXY BEAUTIFUL women with MUSCLE. I want to be the pioneer of the transformation, and I will bear my cross until I succeed! Next up is my 2nd love: (ok, well my first REAL LOVE is technically my family & God, but isn't that kind of a given?) FOOD! YUMMMMMM!! I am open minded about new foods.. nothing I won't try once! With the exception of dairy products because they smell like rotten feet & taste... rotten, ha, I LOVE FOOD! And everyone knows WINE goes well with food! So naturally, I love red wine, preferably dry! And I can eat as much (or more sometimes) than men so.. I'm not a cheap date (& I'm not afraid to eat in front of u!!) But not only do I love eating food, I really love to prepare food, especially during my contest prep! I make some mean dishes when food is restricted from my diet! I get skinny while I make other plump! I also cook healthy meals for my clients to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle!! (ask me about it!) So I covered bodybuilding & food... AHHHH, FOOTBALL! Of course, I am biased to NCAA football.. VERY biased to TEXAS A&M (since I graduated in 2005 with a BS in Biomedical Science.. WHOOP!). Therefore, I CANNOT STAND t.u. With that out of the way, nothing is better than a nice cool Saturday, drinking beer, eating wings, bbq.. whatever (as long as it's food, right?) & watching college football. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy NFL, but college athletes have that real, raw passion for the game. To conclude this short bio, here are a few random tidbits about me: I HATE touching cardboard & hot towels fresh out of the dryer, I love coffee, terrified of heights, never fought with my brother as kids, have an AMERICAN BULLDOG named Daisy, listen to Rap (ie Lil Wayne, Pitbull, Bun B, Trae..) & alternative/ rock (Tool, Rob Zombie, Theory of a Deadman, Korn..), addicted to my BLACKBERRY (mainly txting), hate open doors, am a clean freak, think JOHNNY DEPP is so f'n HOTT, and.... LOVE MY MOM & DAD... without them, I would not have the values & ethics that shape me as a person today. They are amazing people who support me in every way possible, set amazing examples for me & my brother, & represent how I would like my future to play out!
