COMMENTS
In addition to my martial arts skills, I am also a trained actress. Although I have been concentrating primarily on my martial studies for the past decade, in the 1980's I was a featured performer in the pro-wrestling television series GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling). More recently, I was featured in the independant film '24 Hours on Craigslist'. I have extensive improvisational acting experience as well.
My martial credits include winning the US Open twice, and taking first place at the 2002 Arnold Classic tournament in BOTH Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as well as Submission Wrestling.
Currently I run my own BJJ academy in Oakland, CA.
I also have experience and training in MMA fighting, Muai Thai kickboxing, Freestyle wrestling, and American boxing.
