Mikey Singh Hothi is a brown belt at the Nick Diaz Academy in Lodi. He is also the District Director for an elected official in Sacramento, acting as their primary surrogate to the community. Pictured here giving an official state recognition to Nate Diaz, Mikey has successfully navigated the waters in fighting and in politics, two scenes which could not be further apart.

He is well rounded as a rule, spending time doing yoga and rock climbing in addition to jiu jitsu and a packed social calendar. Join us for stories about training with the Diaz brothers, balancing jiu jitsu with a budding career, and a fun conversation with one of my favorite people in Sacramento.
