Personal History
I started racing in 1988, 125 beginner class and in 1990 I broke my first femur. I took a year off to heal. During my first intermediate race I broke my second femur. I took 4 weeks off and came back strong in the 125 novice, winning most of the local races before moving up to the 250 class. Eventually i quit racing motocross and in 2000 I began road racing for the next 5 years. I had moved to Dallas, TX from Northern California and spent 3 years there before I decided I needed to be back towards home. In 2007 I moved to Northern Nevada and started racing motocross again. In 2008 I won the OTHG Reno #1 plate in the 30+ Int class. Due to family issues I was forced to sell my motorcycle to help my family relocate to Southern Nevada where we spent 4 years before moving back to northern Nevada. So here we are in 2015, I had a massive heart attack on August 1st of 2015 which has been the real driving force behind my getting back out on my bike getting healthy and living the moto life I have always loved, and now get to enjoy it with my children! I have a 10 year old son racing and my 5 yr old daughter too!!! I moved to the 38+ nov class and so far I have won 6 of my first 8 motos back placing 2nd in the other 2, as i was sick as heck that weekend. My kids and I are gunna kill it in 2016!! They both have been picked up by Techonekids race team for 2016. My wife and I are very proud and excited for this season, although paying for 3 of us to race is quite stressful so Dad finally needs a little help! THIS IS WHERE YOU ALL COME IN, any and all sponsorships will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for you time and consideration!

Riding Goals
My goal for 2016 is to attend and place at as many races as I possibly can in and around Nevada, California and possibly Idaho! I will be getting as much seat time as humanly possible so that I may meet my goals and fulfill my dreams to place well at the Mammoth races in June 2017,(Just missed 2016 with a shoulder injury) in the 38+ nov( or 40+) not sure what class they have yet. I refuse not to ride my best, I am ultimately setting the bar for my children to follow. I want them to see that anything is possible if they set their minds to it and work hard!
