How I got started

My mother bought me a 4 stroke dirt bike for x-mas. I liked trail riding but decided to try racing and love it. My mom had to then get me a 2 stroke.

Goals for the Future

First place in everything.

What inspires you to compete?

How the adrenaline follows when you are at the gates waiting for the starter to drop the gates.

Describe your style...

I am a very constant rider. During practices I am sure to just ride the track to look for my line. I am aggressive in my riding without jeopardizing others. I try to make good judgements so not to fall.

Do you train? What does your schedule look like?

I ride every weekend whether it is in a race or just practice at TNT. If I race one day, I practice the next day. During the summer I ride almost daily. I have had trainer talk me through different tracks to get my speed up.

Why do you compete?

I am competitive at everything I do. I like to be a winner. This gives me the chance to always try to improve.

How's Life Treating You?

Three years ago I lost my grandmother and grandfather within eight months of each other. This was a difficult time for me. Then is when my mother got me my 1st dirt bike. It has taken some time to move one. But since, then life has been better to me. My mom has really given up a lot to get me involved in this sport. She is there with me at each race and has learned alot about the sport.

Started September 2004, my first race was the Cleveland Country Fair, which I took 2nd place. I raced the JMX series in North Caroina and took 5th overall. I had trouble with my bike and was not able to finish all the races. I also raced series called Robbins Ridge and placed overall first in one class and second in my other class.
