FOR HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN PART OF THE
FITNESS INDUSTRY?
3 years
WHAT GOT YOU STARTED?
A few years after school my passion for sports
changed to the gym, training and living a healthy
lifestyle. My best friend and personal trainer at
the time tried to get me to take my fitness more
seriously and compete, however it was never an
interest of mine. When he passed away in 2011,
I decided to take on that challenge and compete
in my first fitness show in memory of him and
since then I have loved every minute and have not
looked back.
