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.

Surprise Anniversary Bliss

I surely anticipated nothing -- no gift, no planned event, no recognition of the date -- but was so wonderfully surprised at what I got.  I recieved a beautiful plant and a home cooked steak, of which I should note he went to a friend's restaurant out in Mokcheon for a brief cooking lesson.  It was delish.
But this was the best -- a handwritten Korean letter that made me cry.
