Born in Oahu, Hawaii, Elektra lived her childhood life there and when she became a teenager she moved to California with her parents. Soon her dreams of becoming a pro-surfer were replaced by her growing career in modeling. At a very early age Elektra learned about fitness and combined it with modeling and with the help of her agent, Elektra has become the most famous and downloaded fitness model in the world.

Elektra is a certified personal trainer and aerobics instructor. She has a great love for horses and raises money every year to help save the wild mustang and retired race horses from slaughter. She is also a martial artist. Elektra has been blessed to be one of the lucky "petite" models to actually break into fashion modeling.

Elektra is now the proud team captain and co-owner of The Pantera Vixens Dance Team, which performs at special events and functions, such as MMA promotions.
