I get many compliments and comments on my shoulders. People seem to
like the broad round look they have.

I have always been strong for a female. I am a hard worker
at home and in the gym. Being strong gives me the "no boundries"
feeling.

I started on stage when I was five in ballet. Only for a

me. I love it.

body to be any way you want. I love feeling firm and sexy. It is so

Tell us what a typical
day is like your you.
I am an early riser. I have breakfast at 6:00 then I make
the kids a healthy lunch. I wake the kids up for school and get them
ready, drive them to track, football, choir or soccer depending on what
season it may be. Go home run with my dog and then I am off to the gym
so I can get home before the school bus arrives with the girls.
Do you like to show off
your muscles when out in public or do you cover up?
I am not ashamed of my muscles so I dress according to the
activities planned. I do, however, make sure to be covered if I am in a
hurry at the store so I don't have to give out training tips.
What misconception about
bodybuilding would you like to dispell?
You don't have to get so big in the off-season to make
gains. I like looking good every day not just one day a year.
What kind of stuff would
we find in the backseat of your car?
Soccer ball, football cleats, crochet hook and yarn, iPods
and most likely an empty Gatorade bottle. My gym bag has to be in the

Two Mules for Sister
Sarah for movie and Clint Eastwood is my favorite actor
