Bio

I was born in Bangkok, Thailand and came to the states when I was 3 days old. My native language is Vietnamese. I come from a family of 3 brothers and 1 sister. We were all active in some sort of competitive sport. I enjoyed cheerleading and running the most. I found the passion for lifting weights at 18 years old where I hired my first trainer at a Gold’s Gym.

I got married literally the day before my 21st birthday, and currently have 2 beautiful children. It was after my first born, Lana, now 6 years old, that my body had a complete change for the better.I began researching fitness competitions and recalled figure competitions really exploding at the time. With great support from my loving husband, family, and friends, I entered my first show in 2003 and have been challenged and hooked ever since! In 2005, I came quite close to earning professional status at Figure Nationals taking 3rd place. I took a break and had my son Kairon, now 2 years old. I begin prep almost immediately. When he was 7 months old I hit the stage. I was crowned IFBB Professional status a few months later. That is my testimony. With patience, hard work, and my faith in God and the direction he has driven me, I believe ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.

Thank you to my awesome team. Kim Oddo, my nutritionist, my dear friend and trainer Connie Longoria, everyone associated with X-body Fitness, Michaela and Judd Xavier, who help make the quality of my life so much better. My wonderful clients who are my #1 fans, I love you guys so much!

God has given me a wonderful gift of encouraging others, and I’ve found a rewarding career out of it. I’m looking forward to a great future, taking nothing for granted. I thank all my family and friends for their love and committed support!
