Upon finding myself 30 pounds heavier after four years of college I decided that it was time for a change. A friend had done some kickboxing and had enjoyed it so I sought out a gym to learn the sport. My search led me to a small Muay Thai gym in Lakewood where I met Joe Balish. The Lakewood gym went out of business, but after some time away from the sport I was invited to train with Joe again at Riverview where I have remained for the past six years.

In my six years at Riverview I would like to think I have become a student of the sport of Muay Thai. Apart from losing the weight that I had gained, I learned numerous lessons in humility, discipline and respect and found a fast-paced and exciting sport that may have otherwise escaped my attention. With Joe and Alan Ritvo’s approval I am excited to share both my knowledge and passion for this sport with you as a coach. I look forward to helping you on your journey through Muay Thai to become a better athlete and a better person.
