About: As a lifelong martial artist, my journey began at the age of 8 when I immersed myself in the discipline of Taekwondo. Since then, I've dedicated my life to mastering various forms of combat sports and fitness training.

Professional Background: My martial arts journey has been diverse and dynamic. From coaching classes as a teenager to representing Team USA in international competitions, I've honed my skills across different disciplines. My commitment to excellence led me to join the Navy, where I was entrusted with the responsibility of overseeing physical training for my entire unit. Whether it was preparing individuals for PT tests or instilling discipline and resilience, I embraced the challenge with determination. From there I worked my way up and honed in my skills working at various gyms around town until I opened my own gym Strength Camp Portland, At Strength Camp Portland, we didn't just focus on physical strength; we cultivated a community centered around holistic health and personal growth. Martial Arts Mastery: With over 15 years of experience in Muay Thai and a lifelong devotion to martial arts, I bring a unique perspective to the world of boxing. Despite initial reservations from family, including my grandfather, a professional boxer himself, I've embraced the sport with fervor. My training extends beyond the ring, encompassing disciplines such as Jiu-Jitsu, Tai Chi, and Qi Gong, enriching my understanding of movement, balance, and mindfulness.
