Life as a fitness model...
2008 through 2012
These tear sheets are from a lifetime ago. I'm not as buff as I used to be. Though, I like to think that I'm still pretty strong and an "off-season in-shape". I know that I could really use a strong kick to my butt to get more fit (and a solid spray tan, I'm a little pale these days), but frankly, I'm kind of enjoying this time in my life when I am learning how to appreciate little moments. I'm quite the busy body and always ready to go, go, go and do, do, do, but I'm finding that it's important to also know how to be still. I can be quite obsessive, so I think I'm on the other side of training - learning how to "just be".
Even though this is no longer my world, I share these photo shoots because I hope it shows the discipline and focus that I have as a person. When I set my mind to something, I work diligently to make it happen. I originally started fitness training because I wanted to be physically qualified for action roles in film and television. My dream has been to play Wasp Woman, or Janet van Dyne, from Ultimate Marvel because she's of Asian descent in that universe. While I have yet to make that Marvel role happen, I have since had the pleasure of booking a martial art role. Bucket list checked! And hoping for more.
