Main achievements in BJJ:

While I have fought some of the Worlds best and still sometimes step up on the elite competition scene if the chance presents itself, my focus was always on exploring and developing the Art of Jiu Jitsu more than just trying to win.

Before going full time in BJJ I was working as a Tattoo Artist and have a lot of experience with Manga/Comic Illustration.

Regarding achievements I have roughly 150 medals with over 100 of them being gold and several of those being European Titles in Gi and Nogi, also a submission of the year award in German Pro MMA and having fought the Legend Rodolfo Vieira in MMA at ACB in Brazil. But to cut it short, probably my single most outstanding feat was submitting Adam Wardzinski once with an Armbar at CBJJF Europeans in 2015.

Which BJJ Globetrotters camps have you attended?

I attended 10 Globetrotters Camps yet, once Zen Camp and several times Belgium, Austria and Heidelberg.

Which camp has been your favorite so far?

I enjoyed Belgium and Heidelberg the most because of the sheer amount of rolls and other high level grapplers I met.

Favorite stories/moments from the camps?

Honestly there are too many great moments to pick, it’s like half of my life happened at globetrotters.

Your favorite class/classes to teach at camp?

My favorite classes to teach are my Inverted Backmount System and my Hardcore Lapel Bondage because they are both competition proven systems I developed myself.
