I’m sure you guys are aware of my Unleash The Beast shirts, right?? Well there’s a reason for that slogan. As an athlete you’ve got to have an edge, you’ve gotta be raw and get grimy…. well that’s what I believe anyway. You can’t be too nice during training. You’ve gotta rough the weights up a bit, like someone who owes you money, show them who’s boss...
Won first place in the Las Vegas International Open. The week before the Las Vegas International Open, my weight and my lifts were on point, way better than for the Thailand competition the previous month. So I was as ready as I would ever be. It was Wednesday and my weight was 72.kg, just one kilo to lose “I got this” I thought to myself. I had a class that evening and wondered what I should...
Thailand When I found out I was travelling to compete in Chiang Mai, Thailand I was thrilled. I love travelling to exotic countries and lifting against competitors from all over the world. As the time was drawing near, I was becoming anxious and excited. I was putting everything into my training; I was going all out (BEAST MODE).

My training sessions get really intense; I take it to a whole other level. My mood and energy changes and those around me can feel it. I can tell, because I feel the stares. But that doesn’t stop me...
I can’t stand walking long distances. Even when I’m at the mall, I find a seat every chance I get if my friend or family is taking too long in a store! Haha! I swear most of the time I feel like an old lady, which is what my sister calls me all the time. Our gym LPS moved from the downtown location last year and it was way easier to get to by transit than the new spot; for me anyway. The new gym...
I am creating t-shirts with the slogan “Unleash The Beast”. I love this saying, because when you first meet me you wouldn’t think I do what I do or how hard I train. In the gym I listen to loud, aggressive music in order to get me hype while training. People are very amused with me, by the way I train and the type of music I like because most of the time I’m generally quiet, polite and reserved...
