I started practicing and training martial arts in late 2010 with the desire to compete in MMA. I’ve been an active competitor throughout my entire career. My journey began in boxing. However, I quickly transitioned into a full mixed martial artist. Specializing in Muay Thai, kickboxing and combat submission wrestling (no-gi Jiu-Jitsu). I’m also a 4 stripe blue belt in BJJ.

I had a long amateur career and have also competed professionally. I still train regularly and have plans to compete. I look forward to helping out at Portland City Boxing and giving people a fresh new look at Muay Thai/kickboxing!
