I began training at the age of 19 under Sifu Roy Undem.
Sifu Undem had recently return from training under Master Fong in
Tucson, AZ. and was running a small school in the basement of his
home while earning his business degree at the UW. I trained in
this school under various instructors until it broke up about 7
years later.
After some research I began training with Sifu Julio Ferrer of the
Jeet Keun Wing Chun school and later the Wing Chun Original School.
Sifu Julio taught a classical system but utilized more contemporary
methods of training. I stayed with Sifu Julio for a little over 8
years and recieved my instructors certification prior to leaving the
school and starting the North Seattle Wing Chun School.
As with all biographical text there is much omitted here. I very much
enjoy discussions about my past in Wing Chun and would be happy to
answer any questions you might have. Simply call or email me.
