I wasn’t always the coach, fighter, or teacher you see today.

In my late teens and early twenties, I was scrawny, quiet, and disconnected. I struggled with school, avoided sports, and felt like I didn’t belong anywhere. I hit a point where I couldn’t keep drifting — something had to change.

That’s when I found martial arts.

Walking into that gym in 2015, I was the smallest guy on the mats, often outmatched, always sore. But something clicked. The structure, the suffering, the discipline — it gave me a container for growth. Every bruise, every sparring session, every loss taught me to stop making excuses and start showing up differently.

Over time, I built my body and sharpened my mind. I competed in MMA, Jiu Jitsu, and Muay Thai. I became the kind of person I used to admire — someone who earned respect not through size or talk, but through presence, discipline, and action.

In 2019, I applied the same mindset to another world — tech and education. I became a software developer and a math tutor, working with government agencies and helping students transform from confused to confident.

Now, I teach and coach not just to show techniques, but to transform people. Martial arts gave me more than skill — it gave me power over my story. And I want to pass that on.

If you’re stuck, doubting yourself, or feel like there’s something more in you — I’ve been there. I’ve walked that road. And I’m here to guide others through it. Because I believe the strength you're searching for is already within you — it just needs the right path to be revealed.
