What made you get into martial arts?
Watching an Anderson Silva highlight video on youtube. Seeing him strike with such finesse was all the inspiration I needed. That and wanting to become a best version of myself physically and mentally is what finally got me to take the leap into martial arts.I was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. Moved to Colorado in 2018. I’ve been striking since 2022 and learned all I know from HAMA!

Tell us about your journey/background/accomplishments?
My martial arts journey hasn’t been long, but I am hooked and don’t ever plan on stopping. My goal as a coach is to give all the effort and knowledge that HAMA has given me back to the students.

What is your goal as a coach?
When I found out most of my coaches were originally students of HAMA I knew I wanted to eventually coach myself. It’s a beautiful cycle! I want to not only teach world class striking and the concepts that come with it, but I want to instill the same confidence that I gained from learning and training here.

What makes High Altitude Martial Arts special?
To me what makes HAMA special is the fact that it really is a world class gym. There are so many high level athletes that walk through HAMA’s doors. There is no other place where you can come in as a complete beginner and be surrounded by the best of the best day one.
