Bio

“My father, being a former racer, introduced me to the sport in 1995. I started riding after I got my first bike for Christmas. It was a 1995 pw 50 and I got pink and purple gear so I could match my bike. My family and I have traveled all over the country competing against the best of the best so I could improve and grow in the sport. Doing this has helped the exposure of my career as well as the exposure of my many sponsors.”
