An original "Around the way girl"

Monica is one of those old-school girls you watch grow up and end up smacking yourself silly over later, when you realize that she turned out to be not only as hot as you thought she would be, but more. This former cheerleader and basketball player was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and lived in Taiwan from the age of 7 before ending up in Vancouver.

At the age of 15, Monica enrolled at John Casablanca’s (Professional 1&2) and became a fixture in fashion shows for Asian designers as well as a competitor in several fashion show competitions. A “TOM BOY” to the core, athletics were not far from her heart and she began to realize her love affair with working out, and the enjoyment of helping people achieve their goals. Many years, blood, sweat, and tears later, she is now a certified Independent Trainer, with dreams of moving to the U.S. and opening her own personal training facility and spa.

What does the future hold for this young, beautiful, and ambitious girl? Picture a diploma in Fitness Nutrition and a career as an Advanced Sports Specialist. Picture a world-traveling model, with photo shoots in new locations like Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and Cuba or typical jaunts like South Beach, Miami, and The Bahamas. Picture this: Miss Monica Chiang.
