This 43-year-old aspiring songwriter decided that 2009 would be her year of change and with that she started making a conscious effort to drink less, slowly quit smoking, eat healthier and work-out weekly. She soon realized that living in the “Valley” has it’s benefits when it comes to outdoor fitness locations and she chose a popular Canyon hiking path to help her stay in shape. Soon after extending invites to the other girls, Bernie began documenting the VFG excursions for the sole purpose of inspiring others online to get fit. With renewed sense of self-confidence, this musical powerhouse has begun showcasing her talents and commanding the attention of major music industry execs!
Bernadette has worked for over 10 years successfully as a Celebrity Personal Assistant to various high-profile artists, such as “The King of Funk,” Rick James, Actress Tisha Campbell-Martin, Actress Malinda Williams, Actor Duane Martin and Recording Artist Al B. Sure!, to name a few. A testament to her work ethic and dedication, she still keeps a great rapport with the celebrities she has worked for over the years.
Prior to her employment as one of Hollywood’s most sought after Celebrity Assistants, Bernadette was a featured dancer on “Soul Train” for several years. Although acting was never her thing, Bernadette has made appearances on TV shows such as “Family Matters,” “Malcolm and Eddie,” “Dangerous Minds,” “Caroline in the City,” “Buffy The Vampire.”
Bernadette has accomplished a lot, but still looks forward to achieving her personal goals and she’s grateful to share this journey to attain a better and healthier lifestyle with her fellow Valleywood Fit Girls.
