Who is Brenda Lowe?
From the "About us" section of Brenda's company's web site, Paddleboard Miami:
"Brenda Lowe founded Paddleboard Miami in the summer of 2009. Before this, she was exploring the world of modeling and entertainment. She has obtained her bachelor's degree in Broadcast Journalism from Florida International University. Brenda has reached a wide audience of people by winning local beauty pageants as well as a national beauty pageant on television. She was also a Miami Dolphins Cheerleader for two years. After this, she became a television model for a national Hispanic game show. During this time she would spend a lot of time in the ocean or simply outdoors. It was after the show ended where she realized the real fun for her was out in the water- discovering animals and finding great paddleboarding spots. These days, she spends her time with her friends of the ocean and her paddleboard clients."
