Personal History
At 7 years old, my father purchased my very first MX bike. I rode my JR 50 around the yard for hours - I was hooked. For years, I rode my bike for the pure love of riding. It wasn’t until I was 21 years old that I decided to start racing NESC. Not long after, I was married and blessed with my son, Ryan. I then joined the United States Airforce as an active duty Electrician, stationed in Panama City, FL. While living in Florida, I raced at local tracks. In 1997, I changed duty stations and had moved to Cheyenne, WY. During that time, I joined the local circuit SRAC and raced in the 125 Novice Class. I quickly pointed out to the Amateur class. In 1999, I raced the SRAC circuit - winning the 250B Championship and receiving second place in the Open B Championship. After leaving the Air force, my family and I moved back home to CT. We purchased a home and my wife gave birth to our twin boys, Cody and Tallon. I took a short break from racing until 2004, only participating in a few races. My next big race was in 2006. I raced for a NEMX Amateur Championship, winning the 25B and 30B Amateur Championship. My oldest son, Ryan, also raced, receiving 3rd place in the spring championship and 4th place in the fall. I took a break until 2013 but continued to race occasionally, in which I was pointed out into the Vet Expert Class. It was during that season that my passion for MX riding was renewed. Last year, I competed in all of the Winchester Speedpark MX series.
