Personal History
I am a 26 year old dirtbike enthusiast originally from Pittsburgh, PA. In May 2015 I graduated from Penn State Univeristy with a double major in Information Science & Technology and Security & Risk Analysis. I moved to VA where I am employed by the Federal Government and am pursuing my Masters Degree from Johns Hopkins University. I’ve been on a dirtbike ever since I was 4 years old, racing consistently every year since I was 6. My father is an accomplished racer as well, so racing is very much a family affair to me. Beyond dirtbike racing I enjoy Swimming, cycling, running, and competing in Triathlons.
I currently race a 2018 Yamaha 450f out of Lojak’s Cycle Shop in Tarentum, PA.
I’d just like to say thank you for considering me for rider support.

Riding Goals
For 2018, I plan on racing the American Woods Racing Championship Series (AWRCS) in the XC-1A class. (Open A) A main goal of mine is to qualify for the 2019 ISDE race in Portugal. I will race the East coast ISDE Qualifier Series. I also intend to contest the East Coast Harescrambles Series in the Open A class. I will also compete in select National Enduro, ACES Enduro, GNCC, and Virginia Cross Country Hare Scramble races.
