MC Barao

This 5'4" 109 pound beauty was born in the Philippines and raised in Houston Texas.
She appears to be just starting out, with a website coming soon, http://www.mcbarao.com/
Maybe when the website is up I can get some more info.
I have no idea if she has been in any figure competitions, if she's a personal trainer (although I did read where she said she wanted to help people with their fitness goals) or anything like that.
MAYBE she'll stop by and enlighten us.
