After I finally learned how to change my body by counting macros and lifting weights… I decided to see just how far I could take it. I competed in my first bodybuilding competition in fall of 2016.

I spent 2017 fully on the Army’s schedule and rarely at home. My year was spent bouncing between: Ft. Huachuca, AZ, Ft. Polk, LA and Europe (for the first time!)

I loved traveling but I didn’t maintain a level of leanest I was happy with. So I didn’t what I knew would force me to stay disciplined… signed up for another show.

I started my first personal training business and coached over 50 busy, women to lose fat and gain muscle. 

Then things got dark… the first 6 months of 2019 were hell for my health. My digestive and reproductive systems shut down from the stress of constant dieting. I didn’t have a period, was constantly bloated and bound up. I was battle SIBO and it was the hardest time of my life because I didn’t know when I would get better. 

Since I wasn’t healthy, it felt out of integrity to continue being a fitness coach for women so I quit taking on clients. 

My body fully recovered by the start of 2020 an dI wayback in the gym but determined to find balance and ditch the extremes that put my health at risk.

In addition to being a full time Army Captain, I share daily tips on how to live a fit and healthy lifestyle simply because I’ve lived it and I love it.
