I started training Jiu Jitsu a little bit before my 11th birthday. I instantly fell in love. I learned at a very young age this is what I want to do with the rest of my life.
Jiu Jitsu is more than a sport for me. It is a lifestyle and a passion. Jiu Jitsu is probably the first place my whole life where I really felt accepted. I felt like I was surrounded by people who also knew and understood my passion.
My favorite thing about being on the mats is knowing that I can always improve. Every day I get a little bit better and every day I learn something to perfect my technique. So far my proudest moment was definitely going to Florida for the first time and winning the Pan kids. I have so much to look forward to in this sport and I really am going to work as hard as I can to one day be the best.
I’m always meeting amazing friend’s and competitors and it’s just a dream come true to be able to work as hard as I can, and do my best in this sport. I even recently went homeschool, so I can really concentrate and train to my best potential.
I would like to thank Hyperfly for giving me a chance. For looking at me and thinking that they saw something in me to represent their brand is unbelievable. To have someone like Hyperfly want to sponsor them is an incredible accomplishment. They have some of the most incredible athletes in the world representing them. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about me.
