"In 2022, I officially received my Sifu title/certification from Great Grandmaster Chen for Short Form and Long From! For me, this was only the beginning...I'm tremendously grateful that I learned so much from Grandmaster William C. C. Chen! I'm passionately sharing what I he has giving me.
​In September 2025 GGM CHEN awarded me with my Diploma and Master title. I could not be more honored to continue my Tai Chi Chuan journey.

Please know: I could not have achieved this without my dedicated student's attendance in practicing with me! Teaching helps me to understand more of this beautiful movement martial art form every day. THANK YOU!"
