When and why did you start training for fighting? I started back in late 2020 early 2021. I was trying to play professional basketball and it didn’t work out, so I wanted to pick up another hobby and found MMA. I had no intentions of fighting until after a few months of training, then I wanted to test myself.

What professional titles have you held? Ultimate Battlegrounds Heavyweight Champion 

Any belts/ranks in grappling disciplines? Blue belt in Jiujitsu 

What has been your toughest fight to date and why? My toughest fight to date was my last fight with Justin Frazier because I tore some cartilage in my rib in the first 20 seconds, so that was some adversity to fight through.

Who is your favorite fighter and why? My favorite fighter is Israel Adesanya because he never turns down a tough fight and his patience on the feet is something to look up to.

Did you go to college and if so, what degree did you earn? I went to North Carolina Wesleyan University and studied Organizational Administration with a concentration in sports.

What was your job before you started fighting? I am a bartender, bouncer, and a basketball coach.

Personal Life / Background (family stuff, kids, etc.): I’m originally from New York.I have a dog, 3 sisters, my mom and my stepdad, they mean the world to me. My real dad passed away when i was 3 years old and my lifelong dream is to make him as proud as I can. 

Who are 3 people you'd love to meet or work with (celebrities, content creators, other fighters, sports stars)? I would love to meet LeBron James, Tom Brady, and Georges St. Pierre

What are your hobbies, activities or other interests when not training for a fight? I love to hangout with friends and family, playing music, and playing basketball when I’m not training for a fight.
