Hollywood's Profile...
- How It Started: I was working as a phelbotomist in a medical facility and received a phone call from a casting company. It was for an audition in Hollywood, California at the Hyatt on Sunset for the show GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling). I beat out over 500 battling beauties for a slot! Mondo Guerrero/Pepper trained me for GLOW. Gene Lebell and Cheryl Rusa worked with me from then on.

- Gear: Usually black two-piece with studs and black boots. Sexy is the word!
- Titles Held: GLOW Tag Team Title.
- Worst Loss: When I broke my leg against a gal in 1998 in Los Angeles, CA. I did not think I would wrestle again.
