Back in Korea I taught my fair share of fighters even well before I opened up my own boxing club. I've always been about girl power but in Korea I was more so about it because of Korean stereotypes. I felt like a pioneer, paving a way for the next generation of female fighters in that country.
I loved working with the females and I loved working with the younger fighters too.
But when I made my own company, Flipside Fitness, that's when I really found my niche.
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.
