Personal History
I was raised in a small Montana town, I started riding at 8 years old. I come from a Logging family so I spent much of my time riding in the mountains on trails. My love for riding quickly exploded. My parents bought my first bike under the condition I work to buy all the others as I grew. From my first bike forward I have worked logging with my father, 4-H, hay crew, and many other small jobs around the community to always save up for the next step up bikes. I now am riding a KX112 and have just recently purchased my next step up to a Husqvarna TC125. This last summer I was able to talk my parents into some racing. I entered in to some small races and WOW, what a blast!! I thought I loved riding until I raced, now its a passion!! I was also extremely fortunate to get to go to a Motocross camp with Tyler Livesay for 2 days in Great Falls, MT and to have some coaching help from Justin Nardella at many tracks in Montana. These both have been amazing experiences, with lots of skill building and always tons of fun!!
Riding Goals
My racing goals are always changing as I learn and grow. I have accomplished some goals, but have many I still wish to achieve. I plan to race both my bikes this next season and to race more CMMX races as these challenged me more. I also hope to get my first win at one of these races. While racing and much practice I plan to keep working on my techniques and skills to improve my racing skills and speed. And of course always have fun!!!
Competitive Highlights
I have always been competitive in everything I do. During the school year I will and always have been in all school associated sports. I have played sports since I was a T-Baller and have been in 4-H since I was 5. I have enjoyed competition and have always learned and grown from the experiences. I always am pushing and driving myself to be better, faster, and love to win. I also was raised with the "Once you commit, you don't quit", mentality. This has always helped me to stay competitive. I also have huge support from family and friends which helps through the tougher times.
