As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

A Member in Need is a Member In Deed

There was a lot of hard manual work at Hulk's today, beyond the hard training that is.
15 meters of chain later and now we have six sandbags up for our members.

But the renovations in the club wasn't the only hard physical work Snickers and I did today.  Long after the club had closed, we had Franky-G (our scooter) to contend with.  We wanted to bring him up out of the snow and out of harm's danger from potential cars crashing into him.
Attempt #1.  Snickers has Franky-G and I'm laying down the board.
The idea was to drive it up a wooden board but the board shifted and it got stuck.
Note the two circled guys walking by.
They were tonight's much-needed good Samaritans.
At 12:50am, we finally finished the day's hard work and started to head home.
