    Personal Information

    I am a 35 year old mother of 2 beautiful boys, and a photographer.  I have always been active in some type of activity, from cheerleading, basketball and track in high school and college.  After college I started working out in the gym and doing yoga & pilates.  And after the birth of my first child I became really interested in really getting tone and in shape.  A trainer at the gym I was at had mentioned that there was a new division in body building, bikini.  So I sat on that for awhile and continued to work out. But it was not until after the birth of my second child that I really thought I need to get moving with this before I get any older.  That is when I contacted Julie and she got me started!

    What are your greatest fitness accomplishments so far?

    Wow, there are a couple!  The fact that I am actually doing this, the tough workouts and diet.  For the first time I am actually able to do push ups the way they were meant to be done.  I still get so excited when I am doing them!

    Competiton History:
    NPC Derby Classic – Masters Overall Bikini Champ
    NPC Tricky Jackson – Open Bikini B 3rd Place
    NPC Kentucky Muscle – Masters Overall Bikini Champ & Open Bikini D 2nd Place
    NPC Mid Atlantic Grand Prix – Masters Overall Bikini Champ & Open Bikini D 2nd Place

    WHAT CHANGES HAVE YOU SEEN & WHAT HAS HELPED YOU MAKE THE TRANSFORMATION?

    My body has changed drastically!  I went from being skinny looking to have fabulous muscle tone! My biceps have gone up over 2 inches, my legs are tight and tone.  And for the first time in my life I have a butt!  I have made these changes in a 9 week period of time.  I definitely attribute my changes to a challenging workout routine and clean eating.  And most importantly having someone to ask every question possible I had about nutrition, training, everything associated with competing, you name it!  That is Julie!

    What do you enjoy most about fitness?

    The feeling you get after a hard work out, it’s a great sense of accomplishment!  And of course feeling healthy inside & out!

    What are your fitness goals?

    My goals at this point are to continue to compete, to get strong enough in my stage presentation and build a little more muscle.  Next year my goals are to compete and place in the top 5 at the Northern Show and to compete in the Arnold!!

    What motivates you to maintain a healthy lifestyle?

    I am definitely motivated by the results I continue to see with my workouts and diet.  I have suffered from IBS for over 15 years, and now since eating clean I feel great, like a new healthy person.

    What is the best part about working with Julie?

    Oh wow, where do I start?  Julie is all around the best!  The very first time I talked to her she told me I would be ready to compete in 8 weeks.  And I am not going to lie, I thought she was crazy and that there was no way I would be ready to compete in 8 weeks.  Those 8 weeks came and I was ready!  My physique has just gotten better since!

    Julie knows her stuff, every aspect of it.  With Julie I have gotten so much that I know I would have never gotten with another trainer.  She has given me encouragement, has been there to answer every one of my questions I have had (and there have been MANY).   I can always count on her to be honest with me and point me in the right direction. It was such a great feeling to have her there at my first competition and to share that with her.

    I truly cannot say enough about her, my experience has been absolutely wonderful!

    What is the worst part about working with Julie?

    Seriously?

    Favorite 'diet' food:

    Definitely UMP Protein Shake in Chocolate!

    Any other comments or anything else you would like to share

    Although I have had the best trainer in the world, everything that I have been able to do, the discipline of the 4 a.m. workouts, the strict diets, everything is because of God!  He is the only way I could have done this!
