Biography
I’m a Muay Thai fighter/Kickboxer and instructor. Originally from Trinidad & Tobago, I’ve been athletic my whole life and involved in a variety of competitive sports such as Track & Field, tennis, swimming, soccer and cricket.
However, I found my true passion when I took my first martial arts class. In addition to being a great workout and a discipline, I’ve discovered that it was also a great venue for relieving stress and improving mood. I’ve trained in Capoeira, boxing, MMA and Muay Thai. I’ve been a member at TKMT since October 2012. When I’m not teaching or assisting in the gym, I used to train 5-6 days a week, averaging 4 hours per day.
In 2016 at age 34, I decided to quit my job at the bank taking a huge pay cut and move to Thailand to pursue a career as a professional athlete - training full time at Phuket Top Team. Its now or never, and I've never been happier chasing my dream.
My aspirations are to become World Champion, and to remain a lifelong student of the martial arts.
My fight record is 10-2-0 as a armature athlete and 8-2-0 as a professional.
As of Feb 2017, my competitive record includes five North American championship titles:
• 2016 WMC King's Cup Tournament Champion
• 2016 WPMF Interim World Champion
• 2016 MTO Canadian Featherweight Muay Thai Champion
• 2015 WKF (World Kickboxing Federation) K1-Kickboxing Provincial Lightweight Tournament Champion
• 2015 MTC/TBA (Muay Thai Classic/Thai Boxing Authority) North American Welterweight Champion
• 2014 StriKing Ladies Bantamweight Champion
• 2014 WKA (World Kickboxing Association) Bantamweight Champion
• 2014 MTC/TBA (Muay Thai Classic/Thai Boxing Authority) North American Featherweight Champion
