Exciting news - I am going to the Arnold Amateurs!

Today I am very excited to announce that I have been selected to be a part of the New Zealand team going to the Arnold Amateur in Ohio, America.

It still hasn't quite sunk in. It is less than a year ago that I decided to set myself a goal and compete in my first fitness competition. I won the NZIFBB bikini division in Auckland and qualified to compete for Nationals. For the next six months I focused on winning nationals and for anyone that knows me personally they know that once I set my heart on something I will give it everything I have. From regionals I seeked advice on how I could improve and bring my best package to nationals. At nationals I won the tall divison and then won overalls. All of my hard work and dedication paid off!

To every person that has ever thought about competing, give it a go. Nothing is stopping you! You don't want to be sitting there when you are older and looking back wishing that you had done more in your life. I set a goal and I am now off to the Arnolds and this is far more than I could have dreamed of. I would like to thank my friends, family and NZIFBB for their support and belief in me.

Now it's time to put in the hard yards to achieve my best possible physique and do all that I can to make New Zealand proud.
