Personal History
My journey in the world of dirt bikes began when I received my first bike, an XR 80, as a Christmas gift at the age of 8. From that moment, my passion for riding and the desire to push limits only grew. Determined to ride faster and with more power, I worked and saved up to buy a 2009 Suzuki RM 85 that wasn’t running. With the help of my dad, I rebuilt the engine from scratch, igniting not only my love for riding but also for mechanics.
Soon after, I discovered cross-country racing, which quickly became a core part of my life. Within a few weeks we started building a cross county course on our farm which I ride on 4-5 time a week to keep advancing my skills. As I gained more experience, I learned how to maintain and repair my own bike, which led me to start a small repair shop. I now work on bikes for others and buy bikes to flip, turning my passion into a growing business.
Currently, I ride a 2021 Husqvarna TE300 and am racing in the adults class, with dreams of going even further. My ultimate goal is to attend a powersport school after high school and open my own repair shop, where I can continue to pursue my love for racing and mechanics.
Riding Goals
I have a strong passion for cross country racing and love the challenge of pushing my self harder to be better on the bike everyday. I just recently bought a 2021 husqvarna TE300 with money that I had saved up from working on bikes. This has given me the opportunity to move up to the heavy c Adult class. My goal this year is to finish in the top 3 in points at the end of the year. I have already paid and registered for all 10 races this year and am dedicated to making them all. Next years goal is to win the points championship and compete in the Tennessee knockout hard enduro. I have a practice track here on our farm and we are continually adding bigger obstacles to help me advance my skills.

I placed 10th out of 34 rider at the end of the year having 3 top 5 do and 1 win at Loretta Lynn’s. 2023 I placed 6th out of 43 riders at the end of the year in the 85cc senior class. This year I have moved up to the adult heavy class. My plan is to finish in the top five overall at the end of the year in the points.
