Personal History
I grew up in southern VT on a large farm and started riding at the age of 5. I had several bikes while growing up and learned to ride the fields and trails. I rode until I graduated from high school and enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. I did not ride a dirtbike for almost a decade, although I spent a lot of time riding my Harley. After I was Honorably Discharged from the USMC, I went to school at Wyotech in Wyoming to learn diesel technology. I returned to the east coast after graduating from Wyotech. I bought an old 125 and started riding tracks with my best friend Justin Tuerck. I soon moved up to a 250, and then bought my first brand new bike in 2016, a KTM 350SXF. I entered my first race on this bike and was instantly hooked. I began to practice and race as much as my work schedule would allow. I now ride at 1-2 times a week and race as much as I can.
Riding Goals
This year, 2019, I won my first race and took the overall. Next year I hope to improve my skills and continue to podium, and eventually move up to the amateur class.
