Awards
Canadian Physique Alliance (CPA), Barrie, Competitor in the 2019 natural body building competition. I placed first in my division (bikini 5'7" and above). This took years of working out, a full year of meal planning, as well as everyday determination. I counted every calorie and macro, worked out 6-7 days of the week as well as perfecting my routine every day. This was the hardest and most rewarding experience I have taken on and I am looking forward to continuing my challenge next year.
