RACING BACKGROUND
I started racing motocross in March 2010. Since then, I've raced in over 60 AMA sanctioned races. In 2011, I was the 1st place champion in the Youth Beginner 12-15 class at the Loretta Lynn National and was the 1st girl ever to win a boys class. I am a two-time 1st place Ultra Series champion in Girls 12-15 and was undefeated all of last year. Additionally, I was the 1st place champion in the Ultra Series Women’s class last year. I was 5th place in the 2010 Winter National Olympics/Mini O’s and in 2011, I placed 7th.
This year, I placed 4th in the Girls 12-16 class at the Spring Classic National. I continued having a good year, taking 1st in the NE Loretta Lynn Area Qualifier, 1st in the ME, and 2nd in the SE. At last, I was able to place 2nd at the SE Loretta Lynn Regional Qualifer. I was extremely excited to know I was going to another Loretta Lynn National. This year, I had a great start in the 1st moto (top 5) but due to an unfortunate incident, I went down and ended up breaking my wrist but I am back, ready to ride and win!!
WHY I RIDE
Once I started racing, I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I had already earned a black belt in American Karate and was on an elite soccer team that was the youngest team in our region to ever go to a Regional but nothing could compare to racing motocross. Now, my whole life revolves around racing and all I want to do is train hard to be a winner. My plans are to become a pro racer and have the opportunity to race with the best riders in the world.
