ELISE FIRESTONE

Hi My name is Elise. I'm originally from CT and currently and recently moved back. I moved to Long Island about 5 years ago. I didn't really know what I wanted to do where I wanted to go after high school so on a whim I packed my things and moved to Long Island to stay with a cousin. In the long run, I ended up living on Long Island with my parents in CT wishing I would comeback.

I became a licensed aesthetician 3 years ago. I have worked in various salons and spas over the years. I freelance for the greatest cosmetics line there is....MAC. Not only am I licensed in skin care and makeup I am a certified personal trainer and aerobics instructor. And on top of it all trying to finish my
bachelors degree in exercise and nutrition. It wasn't until I meet one of my best friends Colette
Nelson, and IFBB pro bodybuilder, in one of her crazy step classes at the gym did I become extremely
interested in fitness. I always was trying to find the missing link to exercise and diet. I began to
work out and train with her. And from there I've been training and plan on competing in a figure show
this coming December. Since my interest are in make up and fitness I figured why not combine the two
things I love together.

P.S. I want to thank the greatest web designer in the world Colette Nelson for designing my website.

How did you get interested in bodybuilding/working out? I . I was in Colette Nelson's crazy step aerobics classes and was amazed on how fit her body was. After class I asked her a million questions on how I could tranform my body into something so great I than started training with her 3 or more times a week.
What do you like and dislike about competing?I like meeting new people in the fitness industry.
I don't understand what the judges are looking for. at times I'm stomped.
