Hey 🌍,
Just wanted to say thanks for everyone taking the time to read this interview. Inshallah👊🏾🥊♥️
.. I went through some trails and tribulations.. and I reached a point where the only person that could help me was “God”
I hit depression, from loosing parents, personal issues, just life in general
I’ve always been head strong and tough ..
However, even the toughest people need to find and build that relationship with God..
Instead of blaming the world I looked into myself and realized that I became distant
I let the distractions of this world ..blind my vision and true purpose..
I was reborn again ..from being baptized,, find the Nation of Islam ☪️.. to just reaching that temple of light ..where God resonates ..
Once I took the time to build the relationship ..I reached the point where I could have conversation with the lord..
From there I found my purpose and have gave my life to Allah☪️.
I’m a light worker and ultimately I just want to help uplift the consciousness of the world ..
Through everything I do ..it’s all guided by the lord and through conquering my dreams
And keeping the faith
The world will learn that building a relationship with God ..
Is life itself
🫶🏻

Hey 🌍👊🏾,
To best answer this …
I would say I’m like a mad scientist mixed with a martial artist who is business sound lol.
I’ve ran about 7 different business in the past..I have a bachelors from Florida international university 3.7 gpa top 5 percent.
However when I lost my parents I went back to my first love which was boxing ..
I started boxing when I was 14 at Pembroke Pines athletic league. (Shout out to jeff Rambo, Pia Abraham, Ramon Enrique’z, Leo Tobares , Matt , herby, Teofimo , Harold , Lou grant, jean , sarge , Gabe , Blake Davis, Zander, and many more some of my team mates and or people along the journey.
The pain I endured I transmuted to hope and began my journey ..
I got signed quick to celebrity boxing from posting on Instagram … I was discovered by James Toney and fought twice on pay per view z.. I went to go on 1 and 1 and
Have hopes of turning pro and fighting this year (Tba)
I’m currently in Las Vegas. Now training at Toprank gym .. under doctor dorthy,instagram “doctoraruthyoficial” (a beautiful business minded individual .. she manages athletes, helps with all business needs from loans to consulting.. she is amazing the “Boss” David Villa(vila_boxing he is my Coach at Toprank gym.. he has a amazing story and actually lost his brother ..he used that pain to become one of the best coaches in the world and currently train a team of fighters at Toprank.. he has helped to push me to the next level and excited for my future ..
..I was invited to spar with a top fight “Teofimo Lopez” and it changed my life ..
They saw my heart in the ring and I was invited to train in Vegas ..
From that opportunity my life has changed ..
I am thankful to Teofimo Lopez for letting me spar with him ..

With God all is possible
“Faith”
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
The three most impactful skills are as follows..
Life is equal to God without building that relationship with God ..Life doesn’t exist …
Let that sink in
I would say “Faith” is first skill
2nd humility
I got the most opportunities from just being kind and humble.. it will take you far ..
3.. Love
Embracing the love frequency energy …
When you’re capable of tapping into that the universe works for you …
It’s all energy and to really receive those blessings you have to embrace a kind heart .
What is the number one obstacle or challenge you are currently facing and what are you doing to try to resolve or overcome this challenge?
My biggest challenge I am facing right now is sponsors …
Although I have done a bit in a short time ..
In boxing it takes awhile before your a house hold name..
