Overview

How I got started

I began biking about four years ago when I got my first "real" mountian bike. From then on I was hooked. I started out riding Cross-Country and building jumps and trails in the surrounding woods around my house. Then in 2004 I raced for the first time. To me my first season`s result didn`t matter because I just loved to ride my bike.

Goals for the Future

For next season I plan on racing in the Junior X category and making it to the World Championship. In this category I plan to finish with a top five in every race. I will acheive this by training hard in the off-season and be a step ahead of everyone when the 07` season starts. Most importantly I plan on having fun!

Bio

Some Personal Information About Me:

I am 17 years old, and iam going to be a senior at Lake Norman High School. I maintain currently have a 3.93 GPA and have been a National Scholar Athlete the past three years. At school I played  tennis during the first three years and this year i will be playing lacrosse. During the summer when I am not riding my bike or at races I like to spend my time out on the lake with friends or just hanging out.

Describe your style...

I like to be smooth and in control of my bike and in control of the mental part of the game as well. I live for the feeling of just flowing a entire course and making it look easy.

Do you train? What does your schedule look like?

On Saturday i race BMX and practice on Thursdays. I think that BMX helps all aspects of your riding. The rest of the week i switch off either riding the dual slalom course in the back yard or cross country riding at local trails. Then about every week my cousin and i drive to Pisgah to shuttle DH.

Music?

Other than biking my other passion is music. I listen to a variety of different music. Some of my favorite artists include Atmosphere, Tom Petty, Sublime, Bob Marley, Rage Against The Machine, Led Zeppelin, 2Pac, Andre Nickatina, Lil Wayne, Young Joc, Deltron 3030, etc.... and bumpin in a Tahoe w/ 4 12" Audiobahns running off a 3600 watt amp. Tight!!!
