Prior to becoming a professional MMA fighter, Carmouche spent five years in the Marine Corps as an aviation electrician[10] during which she did three tours of duty in the Middle East.[9][11] Her nickname is Girl-Rilla, earned from her muscular physique and strength that outperforms male counterparts.[12] She currently resides in San Diego, California, and trains at San Diego Combat Academy.
