Introduction I was born in 1990 and raised in Cerritos, CA, USA. I played baseball until middle school and was a low brass player in symphonic/marching/jazz band until college. I earned a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Japanese Studies at UC San Diego in 2012. I also concurrently earned my TEFL certificate at UCSD Extension in 2012. I worked as a bus driver during college and have a commercial B-class drivers license with passenger endorsement. I have trained in Yongmudo Hapkido at UCSD for 4 years and specialize in submission grappling, particularly leg locks. I like watching and learning MMA. I also enjoy both road and mountain cycling, and most any other outdoor activities like hiking or cross-country skiing.
