Certifications/Boxing History: 20 years in the sport National amateur Boxing Champion Was Nationally ranked top 10 in the country

Coaching Style/What to expect in your classes: Fun yet technical.

#WHYINUBOXX: I started boxing to lose weight, pre diabetic at age 10. Developed a passion for it and the rest is history. Boxing is therapeutic in a sense. I look at it as the catalyst for change.

How do you strive to #BeYourOwnCEO inside and outside the gym? I try to teach boxing and make it as simple for someone who never took up the sport before. That’s me EVOLVING as a coach. I have a son who’s autistic so I try to do my best to raise him be the best he can be.

“I was hesitant to try another boxing gym because other ones in DC can be a bit too boppy, dancey, dark and techno for me. This place has that small gym feel where the people are there for more than getting skinny, they really appreciate the craft and want to get better.”
