I’m very grateful to REJECT and my teammates this season for making my dream of competing in Japan come true. I had originally planned to stay long term in Japan, but due to personal reasons, I have decided it’s best for me to return to America for a few years. Having a family has always been a life goal of mine, and I’m excited to announce that my wife and I are expecting early next year. Even though my heart lies in competing in Japan, this is what’s best for my family. I’ve grown so close to everyone that leaving feels the same as when I had left LG, I’ll cherish these memories and friendships forever. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to deliver the results for REJECT that I had promised, I plan on living in Japan with my wife in the future, so I’d like to return once again as the strongest and finish what I started. I will continue to compete in North America this upcoming season. Thank you to the Japanese community for being so welcoming of me, I hope you can continue to support REJECT and I next season.
