Coach Ken began his wrestling journey at the age of 12. The second he stepped on the mat he was hooked.  It was not long before he realized how much he truly enjoyed anything dealing with the mat. Freestyle, Scholastic wrestling, submission fighting, grappling, jiu-jitsu and boxing; he trained in all of them.  He also competed for a short time as an adult. 

  He began coaching when he was a senior in high school. After high school, he was invited to coach for an elementary program and assisted with the middle school as well. Shortly thereafter he began coaching for Monroe Twp. for 4 years and then as the Assistant Head Coach for the Trenton Rec program for 5 years. He was also part of a program called "Beat the Streets" for a year and then began coaching for Northern Burlington Youth Wrestling which he did for 4 years as well.

  Coach Ken's own words: "My goal here is to help train these students to be the best mixed martial artists they can be and have fun.  I cannot thank Wright Fight Concepts enough for not only offering me the opportunity to continue my training in a vast variety of programs but for also accepting me into the DOJO as part of the family and I could not be more thankful." 

  And we are lucky indeed to have such a talented and driven wrestling coach and student as well.
