Bio
“I started riding quads when I was 3 years old when I would race with my sister. We were both very competitive with each other. Then I got into riding bikes and I really loved it. I turned pro when I was 15 and ended up with a 4th place finish overall my first year. This last year being my 2nd year racing with the women pro I ended the season with a 2nd overall. I was soooo excited with my finish. There are a lot of very good women in the series...I am very dedicated to the sport as well as my sponsors and family for what they all do for me. What makes me stand out from others?! I feel that I have always stood strong as far as who I am, I have good values, respect for myself and for others.”
