This October, I have the chance to represent the USA at the World Championships in Abu Dhabi. I’ll be competing in the 71 kg low kick division; one of the toughest weight classes out there.

It’s been years of early mornings, late nights, and pushing through pain most people never see. Training isn’t just physical.. it’s mental, spiritual, and financial. Every trip to the gym, every sparring session, and every round on the bag is fueled by a dream that started the first time I stepped into a ring.

I’m deeply grateful to God for giving me the health, strength, and opportunities to pursue this path. My faith is what keeps me grounded, my coach or “Coach Dad”, Aaron Kimball, is the one who sharpens me, and my TCB Gym family is the iron that sharpens iron. I wouldn’t be the fighter or the man I am without them.

Getting to Abu Dhabi isn’t easy. Travel, lodging, and competition costs add up, and while the fight is mine, I can’t take this journey alone. Every dollar gets me one step closer to standing under that flag, hearing my name, and knowing we made it here together.

If you’ve ever believed in chasing something big, I’m asking you to be in my corner for this one. Let’s go win this, together.
