Experience Statement
"I started my jiu jitsu training in Vegas at X-treme Courture. I studied under Neil Melanson, Vinny Magalhaes, and Rodrigo Artilheiro. In 2013 I moved back to Atlanta from Las Vegas. Shortly thereafter Rodrigo relocated to Atlanta as well and I followed my coach to X3 Sports, where I've been ever since. As an adult I've had my struggles with weight. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has proven to be a tremendous partner in helping my keep my struggles in check. I love jiu jitsu and love watching people grow in the art and achieving their own goals and objectives through the lens of the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu."
