How I got started

Mom and Dad started me really early, I got my first bike when I was 3 at christmas and started racing at 5.

Goals for the Future

Due to a few minor injuries and a small lack of cash the past year was very hit and miss. This year I look to follow an entire series either being Mega Series or just Virginia State. I hope to acquire enough points to eventually qualify for a professional national or supercross. Plan on running the qualifiers for Loretta`s and one or two other big east coast races. All and all just looking to get in better shape and become better as I go.

What inspires you to compete?

I can`t hardly explain it but it`s just something I`ve done from a very early age and I`m not about to give it up anytime soon. I think it`s a combination of alot of things. Mostly my dad, I really want him to be proud and know that I`ve tried my hardest to get where I`m at.

Why do you like this sport?

There is no other sport in the world like it!!!! Until you`ve actually competed in a race you`ll never know the feeling. Impossible to explain to anyone who hasn`t.

Describe your style...

My heros growning up were always Rick Johnson, David Bailey, Jeremy McGrath, Kevin Windham and of course Ricky Carmicheal. I`ve always really tried to be smooth like David and Jeremy but have the intensity of the two Ricky`s. So that`s about where I`m at, the best of both worlds, though I do tend to lean towards being a little smoother most of the time-Probably about Kevin Windham Style.

Do you train? What does your schedule look like?

Yes, at the moment (winter/down time) 3 days a week with riding as much as possible until the ground freezes. I stick with mostly free weights and lots of CARDIO.

Music?

I listen to absolutely everything expect for the newer country and all classical.
