My experience in combat sports spans promotion ownership, live-event production, fighter operations, public relations, and televised broadcast coordination.
As an owner of amateur MMA promotion Premiere Combat Group, I helped produce events from initial fight-card development through fight night. I later joined Legacy Fighting Championship, where I coordinated fighter logistics and supported the production of nationally televised events broadcast on AXS TV.f
As an owner of Premiere Combat Group, I oversaw the operational and promotional details required to produce amateur mixed martial arts events.
I developed fight cards, coordinated regulatory requirements with the boxing commission, managed fighter medical documentation, designed promotional posters, led social media promotion, and handled public relations. We also partnered with former world champion Jesse James Leija to produce a sold-out event that generated a five-figure donation to his youth foundation.

Following my work with Premiere Combat Group, I joined Legacy Fighting Championship, the professional MMA promotion then owned and operated by Mick Maynard, who later joined the UFC’s executive leadership and matchmaking team.
I coordinated fighter arrangements for nationally televised events, including medical documentation, regulatory requirements, and travel logistics. On fight nights, I worked with the AXS TV production team to coordinate timing and operational details, helping ensure that the live event and television broadcast progressed smoothly.
Many of the athletes appearing on these fight cards later advanced to the UFC, giving me early experience supporting professional talent within a nationally recognized development pipeline.
