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.

Proudest day of my boxing career: November 5th, 2007.
The day I got my professional boxing license in Seoul, South Korea and became the first and only foreign female to become a professional boxer while residing in Korea.
Most heartbreaking day in my boxing career: February 23rd, 2008.
It was my first fight and I lost... lost more than the fight. My heart broke and it took me a good couple of months to even bring myself to look at these pictures.
They say what doesn't break you, makes you and it's true. This day left me very broken for some time but now I am much stronger because of it.

Hi Casey,
Thanks girl... I love these shots too but it took me a good couple of solid months after that game shot before I could even look at it... was too heartbreaking.
