Do you have any heroes? None

What is your favorite technique? D’arce choke (modified anaconda)

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It’s something I’ve been waiting for for a long time. All the goals that I set are coming true and this is a goal that I’ve had since I started fighting seriously, and it means everything to me right now.
