I started training when I was 9 years old, I've always been interested in fights, and when I was little I always watched UFC with my father, that's when I asked my father what was the fight that started on the ground and he told me it was jiu jitsu. Soon I got interested and enrolled in a Jiu Jitsu academy.

My favorite part of jiu jitsu is takedowns, I really like to trade takedowns, and also make friends.

My biggest accomplishment is that I am
- World champion at weight and absolute in the Blue and Purple belt
- IBJJF Pan-American weight and absolute champion at Purple belt, Brazilian weight, and absolute champion at blue and purple belt.

A fun fact about me is that I'm a bit of an ogre haha, that's why they call me princess Fiona.
