Competed yesterday for the first time under @top_level_pro and overall it was an amazing experience. Other than getting the submission win, the venue was clean and spacious, & the staff and event was run professionally.

Was hoping to showcase some new leg entanglements I’ve been working on in the gym, but I guess that’ll have to wait🥲, overall just grateful and happy to get a submission win period. This is one of my favorite sequences to go for in training, so I was very happy to pull it off in competition.

I felt great leading up to this match, so for that I want to thank all my friends and teammates @jiu_jitsu_modern for getting me sharp for this one. Also, thank you to all my friends and family who kept my head on my shoulders when I wasn’t in the gym. For me, competing is mostly a mental drain, so my mindset leading up to the match is imperative. Lastly, I want to thank @lucas.e.johnson for cornering me and giving me clean, concise advice to work with 😎.

Gonna take a lil bit of time to enjoy my bday on Thursday and then hopefully start getting ready to compete for early August 😳🤔
