Life after divorce:

“I walked from a very emotionally abusive marriage when my twins were 2.5 years old and my baby was 10 months old. I had trauma and didn’t eat for a long time. I had no family close by for support and things spiraled down until I joined the gym again. I became such a different person then: more confident, more goal-oriented, more mentally focused. I developed self-worth that brought confidence in my abilities as a business owner, mother and person.”

A brush with death:

“I almost died in April 2023 from peritonitis with abdominal sepsis–I only had hours to live. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through and the surgeon said the only thing that saved me was being fit and healthy enough to make it through. I am so grateful to be here to celebrate my life!”

To the top:

“I’m proud of placing top five in every natural fitness competition I was in and winning the ‘Heart Award’ and the ‘Most Inspirational Athlete’ award.”

Fun fact:

“I used to drive a picker truck for the oilfield and haul heavy drill pipe out to the oil rigs.”

Aging well:

“I want to age very strong and healthy so I can enjoy my life at age 80 the same way I do now!”
