About Me


Originally from Old Town, Maine, I graduated from OTHS in 1997 and went on to swim for the Black Bears at the University of Maine in Orono. Currently, I live with my husband, Joe, in Charleston, SC where we are both active in the fitness/bodybuilding industry. I qualified for my first national figure show in November of 2004 when I won my height class at the Shannon Meteraud Classic in Greenville, SC. Since then, I have competed in several national figure shows, earning my pro-card at the 2008 Jr. USAs. I have competed twice as an IFBB professional; my first show being the Dexter Jackson Classic held in Jacksonville, FL and my most recent being the 2008 Europa Supershow held in Dallas, TX. Both shows were incredible experiences and while I was happy about my placing in Jacksonville, I realized that I need a lot of work in order to be competitive at that level. That said, I am taking an indefinite amount of time off from competition to enjoy life and work on a few other personal goals. The stage will always be there!

A few days off. . . .

Aside from the 2 shows I competed in this year, I haven't taken any time away from the gym since February.  Even then, it was only for 4 days and it was due to a trip to the ER! &n...

My love of Ketchup

There are just some things in life you don't realize you miss until you get them back - like ketchup!!  I'm not sure exactly what it is about it, but I can't get enough.  I crave it on groun...

I think my body hates me. . . .

It's hard for me to believe I was on stage a week ago at 105. . . with abs.  Rebounding from my diet is always hard and even though I've been much more consistent with my food over this past...

All about USAs in Vegas

Where do I begin?  I wanted to keep everyone up to date while I was in Vegas, but I was pretty lazy while I was there!  There is a 3 hour time difference, so my internal clock was pretty mes...

109 lbs. soaking wet!!

I have to say, for the past few weeks, I've been a little paranoid about my weight.  Yeah, yeah, I know, weight doesn't matter, blah, blah, blah. . . . but for me, it's almost a sign that I'm rea...
