Q & A

Q: When and why did you start training for fighting?

ANSWER: What inspired me to begin MMA is, I was in an abusive relationship and didn’t defend myself and got beat up. I was so angry I wanted to fight and not get arrested, so I decided to do it in a cage. Then I wanted to help women in toxic relationships learn self-defense, so I want to start a women’s self-defense course and a kids’ self-defense course for dealing with violent parents. What inspired me to go pro was the opportunity to get well known so I could make a bigger impact and additionally hunt for financial abundance while doing what I love.

After I lost to her in that first bout I didn't see MMA as a career path....but I later got a call for TUF and jumped on it. While being in the TUF house and no contact to the outside world and new coaches.....it gave me confidence after beating her that I could do this.

Q: Who is your favorite fighter and why?
