Personal History
Well first off I was born on April 19th, 1990 in Phoenix, Arizona. I am 18 yrs old I live with my amazing Girlfriend of 1 year. I have been racing since I was 8 yrs old, when I got my first bike and have loved every minute of it. Before racing I was on a pee-wee baseball team (haha) and use to play basketball all up untill my dad brought home my first bike it was a 1989 Honda Z-50 (haha). I loved that thing. Ever sense my dad brought that bike home I have had a dream of being a top Supercross Pro one day and I still have that same dream 10 years later!
I believe that dreams can become reality, with allot of hard work and dedication. Growing up I never had the benefit of having the newest or fastest bikes. It was always a matter of limited funds. Instead, I had to use my skill and endurance to overcome the shortfalls of not having the best equipment or bikes. So I had to hold the throttle a little longer and get the holeshot to compensate (haha). Having to overcome some of those obsticles has made me the person that I am today. I look at allot of things differantly than other people, not having the money to go to all the big races and having some of the same experiences growing up. I appreciate the little things and try not to take anything for granted, I oonsider racing motocross as a privillage and respect this sport for the sacrifices I have had to make to get this far.
After it is all said and done, I am still that little kid inside with the dream of being a top Supercross Pro one day. I have the dedication, skill and determination to make the sacrifices that will one day make them a reality one day to race motocross for a living.
Riding Goals
My goals for 2009 are to earn all my AMA Pro AM points, that will allow me the opportunity to race Outdoor Nationals and compete in the 2010 West Coast Lites in the East Coast Lites Division. Another goal I have is to win the Supercross State Champ Series in Colorado and come in top 5 in the Motocross Series.
I am also looking forward to representing some amazing sponsors and promoting their products and services in appreciation for their support so that I can achieve my dreams and make them a reality one day. Through these sponsors, my goal is to have the opportunity to compete in as many events that I can particpate in, continue to learn more about the sport of motocross that I love so much and become a better person with the support and influnce of my sponsor's and fellow motocross riders.
Competitive Highlights
I would have to say the biggest highlight of my carrer so far is being on Team Fibewise/Rock River/Sano/Yamaha and having the opportunity to work with Keith Johnson and Tommy Hoffmaster. It was an amazing experience that I hope to get to have opportunity to do again someday. Also coming in 10th overall in a Arenacross lites main event what was so amazing and made me realize that racing professionally was not just a dream but my goal.
