He quickly learned the mechanics of the weapons and founded the Bronzeville Fencing Academy with the goal of providing high-quality fencing instruction in the Black Metropolis – Bronzeville community thus introducing the Olympic sport of Fencing to the underserved and underrepresented youth in the community.
