Bio
I have always been a go-getter, a driven and analytical thinker. Beyond that, I believe in compassion, patience, and in using my knowledge to help others to see the beauty in learning.
I have spent just over 400 hours working in coaching self-defense over 4 years. This has taught me to be compassionate, patient, and adaptable in how I teach and help others. I see the person before I see the mark that they aim to get, and it has always been my aim to accommodate all learning styles for the betterment of the students' experience.
