our trainers

I am the academy owner and Head Instructor of Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of  South Austin.

I have always had a passion for martial arts. I began my taekwondo training at the age of five in 1995 and quickly fell in love with the art form. Growing up in South Austin, I played football in middle school and high school, but my true passion remained with martial arts.

After graduating from high school, I attended trade school and obtained both my A+ and Network+ certifications. With my technical skills, I began working for my father’s martial arts school, where I honed my teaching abilities and developed important leadership skills.

In 2013, I took over as the head instructor and owner of Tiger Rock of South Austin. Under my leadership, the school has continued to thrive, attracting students of all ages and skill levels. I am dedicated to helping my students succeed both in and out of the martial arts school, and I take great pride in seeing them grow and develop as martial artists.

In addition to my work at the martial arts school, I am also involved in my local community. I volunteer at local events and fundraisers, and I am always looking for new ways to give back to the city that raised me.
