Personal History
I live in White Pine, Tennessee and I am a senior at Carson-Newman University in Jefferson City Tennessee. I full time at Advance Auto Parts and I ride as much as I can. I currently ride a 2016 KTM 350xcf and compete in the GNCC, SETRA, and Kenda Full Gas series. I compete in B level classes at these evets. I plan on moving into a General Manager role with Advance when I graduate in May and continuing my racing as long as possible.
Riding Goals
My goals in the 2019 season is to be a front runner in the GNCC and Full gas series. I would love to get a new bike for the season if things line up as they should. I am also in the process of restoring a kx125 and plan on racing a couple 125 dream races as well as some AMA amateur nationals on it over the summer.
Competitive Highlights
In the prime of my 65cc career, I qualified for Loretta's but unfortunately I broke my heel bone at a Loretta's warm-up race. The injury really sat me back and by the time I was back on a bike I was already on 85's. After a lot of hard work and effort I finally re-gained all of my speed plus more and my confidence. By this point I was ready to move up to super mini's in 2011. I did not try to qualify for Loretta's in 2011, but I did in 2012. I made it through the area qualifiers and advanced to the regionals at Windy Hill Mx in North Carolina. In the first moto I had a bad start but worked my way back up to the top ten. In the second moto I had a much better start but unfortunately my motor seized and I was unable to finish the moto. I did use a back-up bike in the third moto but my over-all finish was still in the middle of the pack. Recently I am a very successful off-road rider in my class. I finished top five with many wins at every event last season and I am moving up a class this year. I hope to continue my success in the off-road world and keep having fun.
