What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? The biggest dream of my life is coming true. I put so much time into my training. I’ve been into martial arts since I was 14 years old. I started with self-defense and from there, my passion grew stronger for martial arts as an hobby, and then as a lifestyle. This is my biggest passion, and this is my life now. I will do everything to show everyone that I belong in the UFC.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I studied economics, with a focus on law in the upper secondary school. After I graduated, I was interested in sports, so I took a totally different turn into Sports Academy and studied elite sports education.
What was your job before you started fighting? I had a lot of different jobs - everything from postman, working in the gym as a receptionist, restaurant work, and working in housing with special services for people with disabilities.
Specific accomplishments in amateur competition? In Muay Thai, gold medalist world champion in IFMA 2018, Mexico and Swedish champion in Muay Thai three times.
Favorite grappling/striking technique: I love to do push kicks, elbows, knees from my Muay Thai background, but I don’t have any special techniques that I always train. For me, I get out what I trained for every particular opponent type.
