About Me

I have trained football since I was 5 years old but now I have switched to MMA. What I like about MMA is that I am my biggest opponent—only get as far as I train. Through sports I have gained invaluable insight into teamwork, accountability, leadership and communication.

I like to decompress with a podcast or a good book, cooking for my spouse or going to the sauna. My most fun nights are comprised of a fun board game and my best friends. I believe that learning (formal and informal) is the key to growth and when you stop growing you become fully defined. By growing I allow myself to define who I am and I value that highly. Speaking of values... I have established my personal values which I try and live by every day. I try to be a good friend to my friends, brother to my siblings, son to my parents and partner to my partner. 

I do appreciate a good adventure; I love exploring the world, observing local nature and trying new cuisine. I moved to USA via scholarship an account of my football abilities but unfortunately had to move back home. I aim to move abroad or at least travel for a significant amount of time in the future.


Although the resume and career is formal, I am not. I love to sing out of tune, play pranks on friends and have a good time. 

I think it's important for people to learn to let go and stop adhering to some unachievable standards.
