I presently live in Fountain Hills, AZ, a Beautiful Community
surrounded by Mountains and golf courses, 20 minutes North East of
Phoenix.
I am a Country Girl by every definition of the word. I was Born on
06/15/** (a mature woman never discloses her age,
not to Mention that in MY
Case..I am AGELESS, so it's Not Relevant! LOL!) in Caribou, Maine.
Caribou is a small city in the Northern Most regions of Maine, often the
coldest record breaking temperatures in the USA.
I was always very active as a child to say the least. Being a tom boy, I
Played the Drums all through school and hung out with the guys most of
the time. I preferred to play sports with the boys as well , the girls
were just not in my league of natural athletic abilities. My Favorite
sports were Basketball, Baseball, and Track.
Since the age of 16, I was compulsively obsessed with exercise of some
form. It was my emotional outlet for dealing with life. Before
Bodybuilding I was a long distance runner until my knees gave me too
much trouble. I then switched to biking..not your normal bike ride.....I
would bike anywhere from 30 to 60 miles in a day. At one time my goal
was to be in the Tour de France. I was a VERY Lean 'little' yet strong
girl. I also Loved Boating, Fishing, Canoeing ( entered River races),
enjoyed Cross Country Skiing in the Long Winter months as well as
snowmobiling, and entered many Arm wrestling contests for the Fun of it.
Being from such a small Rural community one has to amuse themselves
somehow!!!!
My Male cousin, who I hung out with much of the time, introduced me to
weights Jan. 1st of 1979. I was Hooked from the first set of benches!!!!
He was amazed at how strong such a teeney girl was. Being strong willed,
I saw the weights as a constant Challenge, which I Welcome in my life to
keep me going. I became obsessed with learning as Much as I could about
bodybuilding, Despite the fact that from where I was from, Guys did not
even Pump much Iron, so I was always considered a young Lady with a very
Unique character. I was dedicated from the start.
To gain my community's approval, as well as my family's, I was driven to
prepare myself to ensure that I would WIN my very first show, and I DID!
Thus set the Fever~~~
I entered my 1st show in Aug. of 1984 winning Ms. Old Orchard Beach
Overall. Soon after that I moved to Southern Maine, Partly because I
wanted to be around more people like myself and Train with updated
equipment. I soon became the woman to look out for on the East Coast.
From 1984-86
I entered 9 State and Regional shows:
AAU 1984
Ms. Old Orchard Beach Overall
AAU 1985 Ms. Maine 2nd place lightweight
AAU 1985 Ms. Northern New England Overall
AAU 1985 Ms. East Coast 1st Place lightweight
AAU 1985 Ms.North East Overall
AAU 1985 Maine Muscle Classic Overall
AAU 1985 Ms. North America 1st Place Lightweight
NPC 1986 New Englands 2nd place lightweight
NPC 1986 South Jersey 3rd place lightweight
I was Training for The Nationals of '86 when I had a serious disabling
Back injury. The injury Was a Blessing in disguise as it slowed me down
a bit and I finally became a MOM!!!!! I was Never Happier. I have 2
Loving, incredibly fabulous children. As of May, 2008, My daughter is 19, and my
son is 17. Being a mom did not stop my training. My Kids learned
how to count by counting my reps with me, and I involved them in my
training by leg pressing and squatting them...still to This Day they ask
me to do this!! LOL!
I hit the stage again in 1994 after Children:
NPC 1994
Ms. Maine 2nd Place lightweight
NPC 1995 Ms. Old Orchard Beach 2nd place lightweight
NPC 1997 Ms. Maine Overall
NPC 1997 Ms. New England Overall
NPC 1997 Nationals 8th Place lightweight
NPC 1998 USA 11th Lightweight
NPC 1998 Nationals 8th place lightweight
In
1998 I felt that I was overlooked. It would have been devastating for me
but with much encouragement from People like Steve Neese, Robert and
Denise Masino, Rick Semple of WPW, Nicole Bass, and many of my wonderful
fans, I held my pride.
Since '98 I have jumped a whole weight class, but have chosen not to
compete as I have had much to take care of with my career and Future
aspirations. Competing is just another stress factor that would have
gotten in the way.
I also am Very Fortunate to be a
favorite in the private wrestling arena. Having a Background in The
Mental Health field and Criminal Justice, the wrestling became natural
to me as I had worked in many settings that I had to physically restrain
people. Couple that with my love and compassion for people and having
helped Many in my life in one way or another, i.e. counseling and/or
personal training which I did for 15 years, I feel very Blessed that I
can share my Goodness, Power and Strength to please people's fantasies
and be respected and admired for all my hard efforts in the process!
I Launched my first site, PecPanther.com, in Feb. Of
2000 and it Soon became one of the favorites all the way through Feb.
Of 2008, and was very successful as well. For various personal reasons
as well as changes in time, I now want to begin Fresh in order to
