I was born in Poland, April 7 1978. I lived there until I was 22. During that time I graduated Esthetic Beauty College and French School of Professional make-up, all with honors. I wanted to move to America to pursue my career in esthetics and make-up artistry.
At 22 I came to the USA, in Sept.2000, and called Chicago, Illinois my home. I have worked in my profession of make-up Artist and Esthetician for 5 years with lots of success on that fields! But at the same time I was working out very hard and dieting, trying to develop my dream “Boris Vallejo” fantasy muscular physique. The picture of my dream was carved in my mind (even when I was a teenager) so hard that even when I had breaks from working out I could not quit it all together. I had a goal and was not going to lose sight of it.
I could not pursue my dream in Poland from many reasons: lack of financial support (I was a student, did not work) poor family income, lack of acceptance in society about women’s bodybuilding and lack of professional guidance by a trainer or mentor. That all worked against me. I promised myself that when I reached the USA, I would work to make my dream come true. Get that lean sculpted, moderately muscular body and compete in bodybuilding!!! And I did it! Wow! It took me 5 Years of killing workouts, and harsh constant dieting. Along the way I tried all kinds of diets and workouts routines to get to know my body and find out what works for me.
After competing for two years in bodybuilding and (and having some success in it!) I decided to switch to Figure because suits my personality better. Plus, it helps me stay motivated and fit all year round.
I am planning to compete on national level quite often on my way to my ultimate goal – PRO CARD – And staying motivated all the time! Call me HERE!
