My name is Patricia Diane Siveny (I go by Diane) and I am a national champion powerlifter.  Here are some things you should know about me.

About 7 years ago, I used to have a weight problem. I decided to go into body building to improve my fitness level. I did this for two years, and was fairly successful. Then I met Gene Bell (an eight time international powerlifting champion) in 2000. Gene mentored, trained, and coached me into the world class athlete that I have become. Please take the time to review my competition results and you will see this. I have already competed in several international competitions, and I also hold 42 local, national and world records in 4 different powerlifting federations. These are all documented in this resume. But there’s more to me than just powerlifting.

I am also a retired United States Air Force Master Sergeant. I am a skilled speaker, instructor, and role model for young people. While I was on active duty, my last commander appointed me to the installation fitness advisor position. In this position, I guided individuals into making the right fitness decisions as well as provided tools and strategies to help them adjust their lifestyle. I am certified as a personal trainer and I am also a Fitness Behavior Consultant. I’ve coached Special Olympics teams and an Air Force Powerlifting team. I’ve directed the State Fair Bench Press and Deadlift meet for 5 years. However, what I enjoy the most is taking a motivated individual under my wing and molding him or her into a stellar athlete.

To summarize, I have a win-win attitude. I will not accept quitting when things get rough. Instead, I identify shortfalls, and make a plan to fix them.
