How I got started

- I got my dad to buy me a bike by agreeing to take my sisters old bedroom set. We then started going to the desert, my dad bought a bike to ride with me then we got bikes for my sister and mom. Now everybody rides in the desert together and when desert season ends I start racing.

Goals for the Future

Race Mammoth, Bishop series, VetX fall and spring series, Some AMA races and CA championship at Glen Helen.

What inspires you to compete?

I enjoy improving my skills, but mostly I just love to ride. I have been sitting down with my dad and setting goals every six months and writing them down. It is pretty cool tracking my progress.

Why do you like this sport?

I love riding bikes. I ride a unicycle, bmx bikes, Honda CR85 and Honda 88 superstock. I love jumping and riding technical sections.
