Please share something of your background and how it relates to your current interest in fitness and modeling.

I grew up being massively overweight standing at 4'4 and a whopping 225lbs. After hitting puberty, I soon realized that no girl wanted to date the "fat kid" so I started to become more active in life. As things started progressing within my physical capabilities,

I soon realized the potential I had of being a really good athlete. During that time throughout middle -high school, I played football, ran track, wrestled as well as picked up martial arts in boxing, muay that and brazilian ju jitsu.

I was a national competitor for these sports for quite some time but always had aspirations of being bigger and asthetic and even more so when I started working at the gym. Fast forward time to 2010 and that's when I was able to start my very first prep towards my first competition. Even though that was the smallest I've ever been standing at 125lbs on stage as a bantamweight bodybuilder, it was the best shape I've ever been in. With that being said, I caught the bug for competing and trying to reach dream physique and the rest is history to date (cont. pg. 4).
