About me:

I am a 31 Year Old Male living in Dagenham East London/Essex, England. work for Warrior Promotions, who specialise in promoting Mixed Martial Arts events. We run the well respected and successful "Cage Warriors Fighting Championship" in the UK (and now the USA too)

We also manage and represent MMA fighters and are known for getting fighters opportunities in top shows around the world. Find out more by going to www.cagewarriors.com

As an MMA fan myself, it is fantastic to work in the industry and can also be very rewarding, but it is often pretty stressful and frustrating. I often find myself battling against big people with big egos who try and force their agenda on me and others. But on the flipside I have been lucky enough to have met some great people, and have been to some cool places and gone to some great events because of my job.

I try hard to be a good person, do the right thing and fight the "good" fight. However I often feel despite my best efforts, i usually let myself down. I'm often hypercritical on myself and i often feel either annoyingly hyper-active, quiet/shy, anxious and/or depressed. But I also have a lot of spirit and drive which keeps me going.

I also used to be a bit of a political junkie, i studied Politics at University and spend most of the 90's to mid 00's boring people senseless at parties, bars and formal functions about Politics! I specialised in US politics and International Relations and still have a keen interest in US government today

In short, i know i have my issues but i feel i am a likeable and "good" person. People may try and take advantage of that, but I'll do what i can to keep going and be a success, whilst not selling my soul in the process.
