He founded Family Martial Arts in 1995 and inspiring, challenging, and equipping young people of all ages through the martial arts continues to be his passion. He is a black belt under James W. DeMile, a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under Chris Blanke, and a brown belt in American Combat Jiu Jitsu under Professor Tony Maynard.
