About
My journey started at 6 years old at local wrestling meets and has taken me to a California state wrestling title, national championships in Judo, Division 1 collegiate wrestling at Cal Poly, professional MMA, and world titles in jiu-jitsu.
I've seen firsthand the critical importance of mastering takedowns and controlling the standing position. These skills are the cornerstone of success in grappling and self-defense — and teaching them is what I do best.
Off the mat, I'm the founder of American Strength and Combat, where I've built a platform giving everyone access to world-class wrestling coaching.
