How I first got into shooting: |
I took at safety class at the police range in San Diego and scored 98-4x the first time I shot bullseye. What a strange natural talent to have! |

What I would additionally like you to know about me: |
It's my belief that you can't become a better shooter until you become a better person. The micro-cosm of shooting will force you to look at all of your weaknesses and fears, mental and physical. For me, shooting is a whetstone upon which to hone your character. |
My favorite USPSA event is: |
The Double Tap - amazing stages and props - BIG FUN! |
Additional Comments: |
Although not a recognized title, in 1996, I competed in World Shoot XI in Brasilia, Brasil in standard class. I was the top scoring female competitor in that division. Unfortunately at that time, Top Lady was only recognized for Overall Results rather than division. |
