Faixa Preta Bound

I proudly train under Master Lloyd Irvin in Camp Springs, MD. I have dedicated my LIFE to earning my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt and winning the Mundials (BJJ World Championships) at the Black Belt level. I plan to hold more World Championship Gold medals than any other competitor the World has seen.

Why stop there? In Mixed Martial Arts, I will hold the Strikeforce Women's 135 and 145 lb title belts. At the same time.

Is that cocky? Perhaps... But I do know, I will not reach my goals alone. I have God and the support of my family, my friends, my teammates, and of course, Master Lloyd. All I need now is you.

The purpose of this blog is for you. For you to get a closer look into the life of SarJ. For you to see the growth of a Champion.

And uh... ya know, maybe you'll get to know me well enough to send donations!

Sijara or SarJ?

Ok, so people have asked me how I got the nickname, SarJ.  Some people think it's cuz I'm mean and bossy... Well that's true, but that's not how I got the name!  
One of my best friends, Nola, was my main dude in college.  But for the first couple months, she couldn't say my name. So she played it off by calling me Sajahara.  Which I thought was weird.  Sajahara turned into Saj.  Which has variations, Saji, Siji. etc.... But only a few special people can get away with those...
One night, a bunch of us were drinking and friggin drunk a** Tiffany kept calling me Saaaaaarrrrrgggggeee!  And we all thought that sounded stupid.  But Tiff wouldn't let it go.  So it spread and soon I was SarJ... I changed the "ge" to a "J" cuz I'm cool. And figured with me being a fighter and all, SarJ was a conveniently cool, tough nickname! Ha!
