BIOGRAPHY (WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING SINCE HS?):
I will be in a documentary about powerlifting as the female novice. Due out in Fall of 2006, it's called "Power Unlimited". Here is the web site to watch the trailer: http://www.powerunlimitedthemovie.com
Here's our web site for the powerlifting team: http://www.powerunlimitedtheteam.com

Kinda hard to imagine little Karen 5"1' weighing 105 in high school now powerlifting! I hold seven California State records, and I just broke the American Squat record for my age and weight. At my last competition, I won two golds, and the honor of "Best Lifter". I won California State Championships for my weight and age.

Squat: 322 lbs hoping for 400 by September 2006.
Bench pressing: 155 lbs goal; 225 by September.
Deadlift off the floor: 275 lbs goal; Hoping to break the American record in May with 295 lbs and hoping for a 365 by September.

After high school I went to work on a cruise ship. I spent the next eight years traveling around to over 68 countries. My favorite would have to be Bali, Indonisia or Singapore for shopping! I met my husband on the last cruise ship, and we live in Northern California now. We own a GNC Store and a 24 hour gym: http://www.anytimefitnessgv.com.

My husband is British, and we have two children. A daughter Teal, born Feb 2000 and a son, Kaelin, born Dec 2002. I also run a women's boot camp at 5:30 in the morning. http://www.NCBootCamp.com.
We home school our children and are very busy.
