Meet the Founder

As a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt and U.S. military veteran, I’ve pushed my body to its limits for over a decade.

I know what it's like to push through injuries and grueling training sessions — and I learned the hard way that recovery is everything.

I built Choju because I couldn’t find what I needed: a clean, effective supplement made for athletes like us. Everything on the shelf was either packed with sugar, full of artificial ingredients, or just didn’t do the job.

This brand is my way of giving back to the sport and community that’s shaped me. It’s for grapplers who train hard, respect the process, and want to stay in the fight for as long as possible.

Whether you're chasing your black belt or showing up to your first class — Choju is for you.
