Personal History
I am 13 years old and I live with my mom, dad, and younger sister. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a leopard gecko. I am currently in 8th grade. I started riding quads when I was 2 and at 3 I really wanted a dirtbike. My parents told me once I learned how to ride a bicycle they would get me a dirtbike. I got on my bike that day and by sunset I was riding like a pro. Needless to say, my parents were held to their word. I have been riding ever since and I am going into my 5th year of racing in 2024.
I spend most of my free time riding and working on my bikes in the garage with my dad. I have a 2022 Husqvarna 105 supermini and two 2023 Husqvarna 105 supermini bikes. I built my own track in my back yard so I spend a lot of time riding and working on that too. Aside from riding, training, and racing, I enjoy hunting with my Pap, wrestling for my school’s wrestling team, going to the swim club with friends in the summer, and snowboarding in the winter.
I am very lucky to have so much support from my family and friends. My mom, dad, pap, grandma, and grandpa come to every single race and are my biggest fans.
Riding Goals
I have always been drawn to anything with a motor. When I was a baby I would make everything have a motor sound and that’s when it all started. Riding is my passion and racing is a dream come true.
I love that I am constantly learning from others to become a better rider. I have learned there is so much more to being a good racer than just being fast. Taking care of my mental health and learning how to properly position and use my body has been my greatest feat. I love getting to ride with so many amazing riders on and off the track and learning from my mentors.
I train year round but in the winter months I train indoors when weather is not permissible. I have been looking for opportunities to travel south during school breaks to gain more riding time and experience riding on new terrain. I will keep working on my mental and physical health to grow as a racer.
My goal for next season is to win the youth championship at AWRCS. I plan to move up to the youth bike supermini A class. I would love the opportunity to race at GNCC. If I get the opportunity to race nationals I am determined to make it on the podium. I also want to continue to be a mentor to the new riders joining the sport of moto.
Competitive Highlights
The 2023 season is coming to an end and I have met several of my goals I have set for myself. I made my first podium win in my racing career at round 1 at AWRCS from the second line of youth and ended the season with 5 podium finishes! I won the AWRCS 2023 class championship for youth bike supermini B with seven first place wins. I ended the season at 4th overall in youth.
