I started my training at the age of 13 under the direct tutelage of Grandmaster Shin, in the "Home School" in Floral Park, NY and continue currently in the United Chung Do Kwan Tae Kwon Do Assoc. I have also trained in many other disciplines such as Tang So Do, Hapkido, and trained in the Israeli Special Forces Street defense "Krav Maga". Affluent in many weapons and currently belted in the Korean sword art  of Haidong Gumdo. I am a certified instructor through the prestigious Black Belt Schools International, fitness Instructor plus the official presenter on Long Island of the "Steal Proof Masters Child Abduction Program". I have been nationally ranked in NASKA (North American Sport Karate Association) and placed in many national AAA rated tournaments up & down the East coast over the years, such as the Empire State Nationals, Ocean State Karate Nationals, Battle Of Atlanta and TKD World Championship in Madison Square Garden to name a few. I hold the rank of Eagle Scout the highest honor in the Boy Scouts Of America.

Though Tae Kwon Do is not a sport to me, it is a way of life. The decision to participate in the Martial Arts is a life altering one. It will change you physically and mentally. Through my training I have learned to overcome challenges and experience victories, giving me the confidence and indomitable spirit to strive to be my BEST! I now enjoy teaching and passing on the knowledge, traditions and positive attitude of the Martial Arts to Children, Teens and Adults of all ages and physical abilities.
