Ali grew up in Rockford, Illinois and at the age of 15 started working at Bally's Health club which is where it all began. Ali started teaching aerobics, lifting weights and at that moment she knew this was a field she wanted to be involved in. I was always active as a child involved in cheerleading, track, volleyball and many other sports in high school. I also started modeling at a young age in many of the Petite USA Pageants all over the States.  That is where my bug for fitness and modeling truly started.

Ali went to college at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Illinois and got my BA in Interpersonal Communications. After Ali graduated she decided there was more to life then living in the Midwest so I packed up my car and drove out  to Arizona. I had never been there before but I knew the sun was always shining and that was good enough for me. While working out in the gym one day I started hearing about these NPC fitness/body building competitions that were being held in town.  After sitting in the audience at a few NPC shows I said to myself next time I'll be on stage not sitting in the audience.  That led to the last 12 years of my life in which I competed in the NPC, FAP, and WBFF fitness federations. I started out competing in NPC figure then switched to the FAP & WBFF's  figure, fitness model and bikini divisions.

Fitness, bikini & fashion modeling has also been a big part of my life. I have been featured in fitness calendars, on-line, ads, books, commercials, and fitness videos. I am also a certified personal trainer and provide nutritional/workout consultations on-line and locally.In between my competing, personal training clients, modeling & consultations I have also worked for the last 12 years at a Personal Injury law firm in Phoenix. I am a settlement negotiator there and spend many of my days in negotiations on cases.

You can say I live my life as a jack of all trades and love every minute of it as each day brings me new opportunities and much excitement. As to my latest creation which is my new product line at Ali's all natural. I have been working in the last year developing a line of all natural, sugar-free pancake syrups that are sweetened with Stevia. I launched the products on my website at www.alisallnatural.com back in April, 2011. They can be purchased on the site as well as various stores & markets throughout the Country.

This project has been my passion to be able to develop such a healthy line of sugar-free syrups sweetened with an all natural sugar called Stevia and I thank God for opening all the doors to making this dream come true. I am currently marketing the products all over the States in various trade shows, home shows, events, charities & in stores. I have also developed a line of all natural, sugar-free dessert syrups sweetened with Stevia that will be available soon.
