    Career

    Born in the United States, Dana Linn was recruited to play soccer for West Chester University, as a starting defender and help lead her team to NCAA’s and playoffs. When she graduated college, she made the transition to lifting, along with her then boyfriend Rob Bailey.[1]

    She entered her first figure competition in 2006 at the Lehigh Valley Championships and competed in figure up until 2010. She taught Physical Education at Conrad Weiser Middle School in Robesonia Pennsylvania until 2007, when she retired to focus on her career.

    In 2010, she decided to participate in the very FIRST Physique show, which was 2011, JR. USA’s in Charleston, SC. She won overall, received her IFBB pro card, and became the first women's physique pro in the NPC/IFBB. She is on hiatus from the Olympia competition, focusing on her and her husband's gym.[2]
