My JourneyMother, Mrs. Maryland 2023, Motivational Speaker, Fitness Trainer, and 5th Degree Taekwondo Black Belt
I was born a fighter. I entered this world with my first challenge, having breathed in meconium while still in the womb. My grandmother and mother were strong females who knew I’d pull through. And I did.
As a young child, I was raised in a Taekwondo dojang.
My father, a Taekwondo grandmaster, allowed me to do one sport and with his heavy knowledge of the Korean martial art, that was what I learned.
The Taekwondo philosophy is cemented within me. I have a strong foundation of martial arts that has helped me overcome hardships and obstacles.
It also helped me to set and achieve high goals, such as:
✓ Competing in my first pageant (and winning)
✓ Landing the cover of a fitness magazine
✓ Being a guest on a daytime talk show
My Pageant JourneyIn 2021, I announced I was in my first-ever pageant.
After several hardships, I was ready for an adventure to ring in my 40th birthday.
A pageant came to mind. Nervous, scared, and unsure, I had many doubts. I channeled my inner female warrior to compete and won! As Mrs. Maryland America 2021, I grew immensely.
I continued my pageant journey as I was crowned United States of America’s Mrs. Maryland 2023 and I placed in Top 12 at Nationals!

“Throughout my years of working out, exercise has always been an outlet for me, but I never had the proper guidance on nutrition or how to workout. I now know what workouts to do and how to eat to see results. Thank you for being a wonderful coach, Julia!”

“I feel like a new beginning is happening. Literally a month ago, I was so depressed and I remember DMing you with tears rolling down my face as were talking...Finally, after 40 years of living, I know how to eat and take care of this body! Now, I'm less foggy brained, not in as much pain every day, and love seeing my lean muscles. You have helped shift my life immensely and I can't believe I did it. I can't wait to give you a big hug to say thank you.”
