TennayaLayoutsDestiny? This is my tag name that goes back many years... to a young, ambitious street artist. What can I say? I'm told I cannot be categorized, which means I'm open minded, I like many different things, and I don't fit into cliques. I'm not afraid to be different.I'm a communications professional that specializes in media relations. I have many years of broadcast journalism, video production and photography experience. I also do graphic and web design.My family is plagued with Type 2 diabetes, so health is a very important aspect of my life. I began my strength training with bodybuilder John Boos in 2004. Today, I strength train about 4-5x/week at LA Fitness, with a little cardio in between since my focus is to add more muscle. I'm an AAPTE Certified Personal Fitness Trainer/Health Fitness Instructor through Hofstra University, but I only train myself at this time. I'm a foodie, so there's a reason why I eat so "clean" now!! Special thanks to Colette Nelson, IFBB professional bodybuilder and an awesome dietician who helped me to lose nearly 30 lbs. and finally "get it right." Special thanks also to the original "Warriors" of Zawaki Studio -- Cindy, Cathy and friends -- you know who you are!! Keeping up high kicks at 140 beats per minute, and the hottie bodies over age 40!!My relationship motto is "A woman's life is never complete until she is married. Then, she is finished."Very soon, I will buy my own little condo in a warm climate. These days I'll pass on that mojito, for a breathtaking run on the beach.
