I was raised in North Carolina. I started training in Muay Thai and BJJ in 2005 in Wilmington N.C.. Moved to Atlanta to turn Pro and persue a fighting career after graduating from school. I've won an amateur title at 145 lbs. and countless grappling tournaments. I am currently 6-1 as a professional and my ultimate goal is to compete with the best in the WEC. In the mean time I'm training hard and looking forward to fighting for SportFightX in March.
