How did you become involved in the fitness industry?

In July 2014 I assisted my previous employer who had a stand at the Miss SA Xtreme show. I watched the ladies go on and off the stage and by the time the main show rolled around I thought to myself: 'I can do this!' I mentioned it to the people I was with at the time and they didn't believe that I could actually do it, which only made me more motivated to prove them wrong! The next week I phoned a friend who happened to be a coach and nutritionist and asked what it would take to compete in the Body Beautiful competition, which was three months away. I went for my first assessment and the rest, as they say, is history. Three months later I walked onto stage at my first show.

Was the show what you imagined it would be?

The 2014 Body Beautiful was such a great experience. I didn’t have much in the way of expectations as I had no idea what the day would actually entail. I had heard people say that show day is difficult and tiring, but I was just buzzing with excitement, especially having all of my friends and family coming out to support me. It ended up being so much more. There was a massive line-up and I just hoped to make top ten for my first show. When they called out my name for second place I was absolutely elated!

What is your fondest childhood memory?

For most of my childhood I lived on a farm which was pretty amazing. On my 8th birthday my parents invited all of my friends to the farm which didn’t happen often. My dad had this big truck and we met all the kids at the entrance to our farm and we all rode to our house on the truck. We spent the day just playing outside and eating cake! That’s a memory from my childhood that really stands out for me.
