A friend of mine who was into MMA inspired me to start martial arts.  He opened my eyes to how much I didn’t know about self defense.  I decided to try out jiu jitsu and I’ve been hooked ever since. 

I love sharing my knowledge and experience with others and watching them grow.

 I like teaching people from all backgrounds, but I enjoy those with an eagerness to learn.
