I grew up in Sacramento California where I played football and wrestled. Got a scholarship to wrestle at the University of Northern Iowa. I was an All-American wrestler and graduated with my masters in business and administration. I completed two years after college trying to make the world and Olympic the teams. After not qualifying for Rio Olympics I moved back to California and started my own wrestling academy. Currently, I am the assistant coach at San Francisco State University, the national team coach for California high school wrestlers, and also run my own wrestling Club. I am also training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu
