## Bio

A product of the Art of Jiu-Jitsu (AOJ) production line under Guilherme Mendes, Jessa Khan earned her black belt at just 18 years old, two days before her 19th birthday. Born in Texas and raised across multiple naval bases, Khan’s grappling foundation was laid at O2 Martial Arts with the Onzuka Brothers before settling in California, where her aggressive, pressure-heavy style—a contrast to the typical AOJ guard player—made her a standout prospect. She added judo and wrestling to her arsenal early, and her competitive peak came as a dominant force in the colored belt divisions, setting the stage for her rapid rise through the adult ranks.
