TRAINING: Every day is different. But I get a good 4-5 hours a day / 5 days out of the week. 

When and why did you start training for fighting? I started in 2013. I started fighting because I fell in love with all of the martial arts. 

What ranks and titles have you held? I was a two-time bronze medalist in the world championships of freestyle wrestling. Gladiator Challenge champion. Ranked number one in the USA at 55kg in freestyle wrestling in 2011, ASICS National High School Wrestler of the Year in 2007 and 2008. TUF 23 winner

Do you have any heroes? My mom 

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It's absolutely amazing to fight in the UFC. I feel like I'm meant to fight for the UFC. I can't wait to show the world what I can do. 

What was your job before you started fighting? I was a dog trainer before I fully committed myself to MMA.
