Personal History
I am a 21 year old college student at Saginaw Valley State University studying Electrical Engineering. I grew up in Gaylord, MI from the time I was born, until I graduated highschool and moved down to saginaw to continue my schooling. My mother and father were both very supportive of me playing sports throughout school as well as the dirt bike racing during the spring, summer, and fall. I grew up racing the district 14 family enduro series in Michigan/Indiana and I currently race all over the state of Michigan in the Michigan Sprint enduro Series as well as do a select amount of out of state nationals and other series.
Riding Goals
First and foremost, I ride not only because I am a very competitive person that always loves a challenge, but also because it brings me a lot of peace to be on a motorcycle flying through the woods. Riding/racing with my dad as a child was my favorite thing to do, and last year in 2023, he passed away from cancer. I feel closest to him when I am on the bike. As for my plans for this year in 2024, I plan on racing the full Michigan Sprint enduro series in the Open A class and trying my best to capture that title for the second time. I also plan on competing in a few out of state nationals such as a few national enduros, US hard enduro series races, and GNCC races.
Competitive Highlights
Some accomplishments of mine include my best finish at the world famous Jack Pine enduro here in Michigan in 2021 with a 1st in Open A, and a 4th overall out of 360 racers.
Another would include my 2022 Open A championship in the Michigan Sprint enduro series.
Lastly, a silver medal finish at the Red bull Tennessee knockout hard enduro in 2023
