Personal History
I am a 37 year old husband and father of two. I have been racing since I was 14 years old with the exception of 1994 through 1999 of which I quit because of injury. I am a college graduate and have been working for the US Postal Service since 1994. I am presently the Postmaster of the Milton, WV Post Office. This gives the the experience and ability to deal with the public, manage my people, and promote my product on a daily basis.
Riding Goals
I will be racing mostly AMA District 11 (Southern OH) as well as select AMA District 5 (PA and WV) races. In addition, I will be racing as many of the Mega Series events as financially feasible. I look to finish in the top 5 overall in points at the Mega Series in the Vet classes and look to finish in the top 3 in AMA District 11 in the Vet classes.
Competitive Highlights
I went to the Loretta Lynns Am. National Championships in 1990 in the 250C Stock and Mod. classes finishing 29th and 27th respectively DESPITE having a DNF in both classes. I would have easily been top 15 without the DNFs. This shows that I have a never give up attitude and a tenacity to be successful. I realize that I am only going to be able to race to a certain time in my life and I want to make the most of it!
