The most thing I love about my sport is that it’s not easy and I have to work hard every day and push myself to the limit and when doing so I got to compete at the highest level of youth, MMA and competed in Abu Dhabi to represent Team USA.
My coaches inspire me every day by encouraging me to work hard harder. Get better get stronger and get faster. I am thankful for all my coaches and how far they’ve taken me in my Mma career at such a young age.
My most proudest moment is representing Team USA in Abu Dhabi, traveling the world and representing my country the United States of America.
