Jamie is prolific competitor, having won the IBJJF Europeans at Masters on a number of occasions on his way to achieving his Black Belt. As a Black he still continues to compete whenever possible.

Long before BJJ, as a teenager, Jamie got involved with the wrong crowd which led him down a dark path of hard drugs, addiction, crime, violence, prison and tragedy.
