After doing some martial arts training as a child, Matt made the effort to turn a passing interest into a passion in 2009 and began training in BJJ. 
After Rob’s passing, Matt went on to train in kickboxing, submission wrestling, and MMA before taking up a role as instructor, MMA assistant coach, and fight team cornerman at a gym run by Rob’s protege, helping guide one team member to a regional featherweight title in MMA competition.
The closure of that gym and covid saw Matt take a short hiatus from training. Eager to return to the path of martial arts in early 2022, Matt identified Bujutsu as a fantastic dojo to call home and the perfect place to continue his journey of accruing and passing on knowledge of martial arts.
