Some of my personal interests include competing in Powerlifting and Figure Competitions. I am a member of the National Physique Committee (NPC) and have competed in numerous Bodybuilding, Fitness and Figure Events.
In September of '07 I proved a point that women can be strong, lift weights and still maintain a feminine and shapely appearance in a swimsuit when I entered and won a Harley Davidson Bikini Contest.
For the past two years I have been involved in powerlifting, which has helped to develop both my mental and physical strength. I have competed and hold NC State records in the Women's 148lb division, and I recently became the IPA National Champion in the 132lb. division at the November 17th, 2007 York Barbell IPA National Championships in York, Pennsylvania.
A personal goal of mine is to present an image to others of strength, femininity and integrity. I enjoy being competitive and pushing myself, and helping others reach their goals motivates me to keep making personal gains.
I was recently sponsored by Torch Nutrition & Supplement Line, Elite Fitness Systems and Metal Powerlifting Gear. I am so proud to be a representative of these companies!

I prepare for my powerlifting meets with my training partners Chris "Ox" Mason
(www.oxsportz.com ),
Mike White and Chad Cline, and my boyfriend Matthew. Matt and I also train at Gold's Gym in Greensboro, N.C. My best competition lifts to date (as of March 4, 2009) are a 430lb Squat, a 285lb Bench Press, and a 405lb Deadlift in the 148lb class. My best lifts in the 132lb division are a 315lb Squat, a 215lb Bench Press, and a 350lb Deadlift.
My most recent meet was the March 4, 2009 APF Meet in Columbia, SC, where I won both the Women's 148lb class and Best Lifter Overall by Bodyweight Coefficient. My best lifts were a 430lb Squat, a 285lb Bench Press, and a 405lb Deadlift at 145lb Bodyweight. This meet was not only fun, but also very rewarding- I set a 1120lb Total record that ranks 6th on Powerlifting Watch's Highest Total List.
Another of my recent meets was the IPA National Championships in York, Pennsylvania. Competing in the 132lb class was very different and a challenge for me, but it was rewarding and I am now the 132lb IPA National Champion!
Early in '07 I competed in the 148lb division in Raleigh, NC. This was the January 27th, 2007 APF NC State, where I placed first in my class. I was also named Best Female Lifter of the meet with a total of 992lbs. I now hold all NC State records in the 148lb division, and I outdid my personal best by 30lbs at this meet!
I also competed in the 2006 APF/AAPF Summer Heat II in Rock Hill, S.C. I placed 1st in the women's 148lb class and was also named the Female Best Lifter by bodyweight coefficient. I enjoy pushing myself and hope to make an impact in the powerlifting world.
