I've been practicing martial arts since I was 8 years old. As an American living in Japan, joining my previous karate organization was an important part of my journey, and I'm grateful for the experiences and friendships I made there.
Today, I'm proud to be part of another karate organization. Looking back, if I hadn't left my previous organization when I did, I may never have had the time and motivation to open my restaurant—a dream I always had.

What felt like a loss at the time turned out to be the chance to create a better opportunity for me and my family. Sometimes what seems like a setback is really the beginning of something better.
