We received word from another NPC USA Figure champ that she will be making her debut in 2007. April Fortier won the Figure D Class earlier this year in Las Vegas.

She’s one of the rare competitors who has competed in both fitness and figure. April placed third at the Team Universe fitness tall class as well as third in the Figure Nationals D Class. Prior to that she placed fourth in both fitness and figure at the 2007 Junior Nationals. April’s had a busy yet successful 2007 competitive season. Fourth to Third to First… Where will she fair in the next level?

When asked how she feels about competing for the first time as a pro she responded with, “I’m so thrilled to be competing in my first pro shows.” April promises to knock out socks off when she steps on stage this weekend at the IFBB Sacramento Pro. She will also be competing in the Kentucky Pro figure show in a couple of weeks.

Mirror, Mirror in my hand…Where O Where will I land?

Good luck, April, in your IFBB pro figure debut!
