Biography
TRAINING: Wake up around 9am, grab a small breakfast and head to the gym around 10:15. I’ll work with Marvin Eastman from 10:30 to 11:30, doing technique or cable, followed by team practice with John Wood and Tom Lawlor directly after until about 1 to 1:30. Then I’ll head home and eat lunch. Depending if I have work or not, I will do strength and conditioning around 5:00 followed by jiu-jitsu practice. If I have time to fit in a little yoga session I will, or if I need to clear my head I’ll head over to the bouldering gym.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training when I was 12 and fighting when I was 20 years old. I started training because I like to compete.
What ranks and titles have you held? I have a blue belt in BJJ. I don’t really have any pro titles or anything cool like that. I did hold the Buck Hunt video game top score for a long while at the Dave and Busters here in Las Vegas
Do you have any heroes? Batman, Etrigan the Demon, Shazam, John Wick, I could go on.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It means that I don’t have to explain MMA and promotions to people when they ask “You do UFC?” I can finally say yes and it won’t be a lie.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? Associates
What was your job before you started fighting? I still work multiple jobs. Right now, I’m working for TopGolf.
