I have always enjoyed sports and have been competing in various sports since I was 15. Starting out as a Sprinter, I went on to represent Great Britain on the GBR Bobsleigh Team for 4 years before helping coach a team to take silver at the Youth Olympics. Whilst competing in Italy I was in a bobsleigh crash and broke my back – and shortly after was diagnosed with a genetic heart condition which I’d had since birth but had been dormant. This injury and illness spelled the end of my Bobsleigh career.

After I retired from bobsleigh – it took a couple of years to be healthy and fit again and I competed in my first bodybuilding show as I just needed a goal to aim for in the gym. Having previously taken my health for granted, I now understood the value of living life to the full and looking after my health as a priority.  I loved the experience of competing in bodybuilding so much that I’ve been competing ever since. I have many British titles, 3 world titles, 3 Olympia & 3 Universe titles and hold pro cards with 9 Federations and have 13 Pro Titles. I also returned to athletics and in 2012 became the Masters World champion for 200m and was nominated for Plymouth Sports Personality of the Year. I love the experiences, the travel and the people I meet and friends made from competing around the world.

I’m a former Gym owner, with a background in Sales and Promotions.I am now a self employed Online Personal Trainer, specialising in coaching women to help them achieve their own fitness goals and also specialise in Plant based nutrition. and offer posing classes and workshops.

I am a lifetime natural competitor, vegetarian since I was 15 and Vegan since I was 39. I aim to inspire others to achieve their fitness goals in a healthy way.
