I am a professional firefighter and paramedic in Las Vegas, on the job for almost 14 years. Also mother of two, 25 and 9 years old. I love to travel and have a strong competitive spirit.

My most recent accomplishment: 3 gold medals in the World Police and Fire Games held in Quebec, Canada. I competed in the bodybuilding and indoor rowing events. I look forward to the Masters Nationals July 22^nd and 23^rd, then on to the USA's July 29^th and 30^th.

Bodybuilding is not my life, but it is my lifestyle. The discipline of training and contest preparation has helped me in every aspect of my life, especially my career.

Strength is beauty, and self-confidence is the most attractive thing that I can think of in person. I hope my accomplishments as a bodybuilder, mother, firefighter, woman and individual will motivate others to make the most of themselves. Life is short - live hard, play hard.
