I am a Full Instructor in Jeet Kune Do and Filipino Martial Arts under Paul Vunak. I hold a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under the Machado lineage and am currently training toward a Black Belt in Judo.
My expertise includes Street Safe , Combat Flow, and Resist.
With a Master’s degree in Behavioral and Clinical Psychology, I blend psychological principles with martial arts to enhance students' learning. I use these principles to help students build confidence, refine their skills, and grow mentally and physically.
