Personal History
I have been riding something with an engine between my legs since I was little, starting with three-wheelers and swapping between four-wheelers and dirt bikes with some snowmobiles thrown in along the way. Come from a woods riding back ground and took up motocross after going to a few races locally with and watching my little cousin on his 50. I started racing competitively in the 2013 season and made it my goal to start out by finishing every moto I started. in my first ever race and, first time on a gate drop start, I had to race a heat race and ended up in 19th place and advanced to the Main of the day for 250c. That day I realized I had a new passion in life. I raced every race I could make during the spring and in June had a bad get off while practicing and shattered my shoulder in 4 places, needing 13 screws and a plate to patch it back together. I had to sit out the rest of the summer and was allowed back on a bike in September. I was back at a race within 3 weeks of being allowed on my bike. The accident set me back a good amount of funds and seat time, and being a full time college student working two part time jobs doesn't help with that, but after coming back and starting to train hard again for just a few months I have already started seeing improvement and gaining confidence back and am looking forward to the 2014 season
When not wrenching or riding, I am a full time biology student at West Chester University and work two part time/ full time jobs depending on if school is in session or not. I am also a volunteer firefighter for the past 10 years serving 4 of those years as a Rescue Lieutenant.
