Why do I fundraise? I’m glad that I’ll asked.

As a disabled combat veteran, I’m committed to helping fellow veterans find healing and purpose beyond their service. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been life-changing for me, improving both my mental and physical health while restoring the sense of camaraderie and community I missed after leaving the military. Through this fundraiser, my goal is to help other combat veterans step onto the mats and experience these same benefits. No one should have to face the transition alone, and I don’t want to keep something this powerful to myself. Thank you for supporting our veterans on their journey to recovery, connection, and strength. Oss! And Aim High!

I'm raising money for We Defy!

I’m thrilled to be participating in WDF Memorial Day Ruck & Roll 2026, a fundraiser supporting We Defy! I’m passionate about this cause and need your help! Every donation—big or small—helps me reach my fundraising goal and directly impacts this important cause.

Here's how you can help:

  • Donate: Contribute whatever you can. No amount is too small!
