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 Turn of Events

Was invited to some live fights today by that MMA fighter I met yesterday, Mark,
so today I showed up to cheer on his fighter.

Ended up working his corner and helping him out.
He's Filipino/Mexican from the States and I'm Polish/Austrian from Canada.
We're both mutts, both fighters... and both 125lbs. Well, I'm 1.6lbs bigger... hahaha.
Yesterday morning I didn't know any of these guys.  Today I came having met one of them but 
this afternoon I left feeling like one of their teammates.  I wish them all a safe trip home to the States 
and hope they take only good memories of the Philippines.
