I am a two-time Olympic Canadian boxing representative – partaking in the Sydney 2000 and Athens 2004 games – and a professional Canadian bantam weight champion. Over nineteen years of boxing training have led me to participate in one hundred and twenty five bouts as an amateur and thirteen bouts as a professional. I have participated in a number of boxing events including the Commonwealth and Pan American games and have received numerous accolades. Apart from individual boxing, I have been highly involved in supporting emerging boxers and athletes and acting as a mentor and trainer to assist them with achieving their short-term and long-term objectives. When training other individuals, I use a specialized and unique style with a focus on leveraging physical conditioning without actual person-to-person contact. This involves a variety of training methods including hand pad work, skipping and interval training.  I am also affiliated with a number of boxing clubs across Ontario and have built a strong network with a myriad of professional colleagues and supporters.

I am the head coach of the Rock Steady Boxing Toronto program at Budo Canada. We are the first location in Canada to adopt the Rock Steady Boxing program first started in the United States. It’s main objective is to improve the quality life and help suppress the advancement of Parkinson’s.
