Date of Birth: January 26, 2000
Bike Brand: King Cobra and KTM 65

2008 Classes:
50cc (7-8), 50 Open & 65 (7-9) Beginner
My Dad raced when he was younger and got me my first KTM JR50 when I was 6 years old. My first race was in August 2006 at a local 4-H Fair race and I got third palce. Shortly after I began racing my parents built a track at our house and I began practicing every day and racing each weekend at tracks throughout Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. I have won alot and have been injury free thus far. My favorite track are Ballance MX in Smiths Grove, KY, Podium One in Charlestown, IN, Dirt Country in Blanchester, OH.  Millville in MN and Gatorback in FL are two of my favorite national motocross tracks. My favorite Pro rider is Ricky Carmichael.
I am in the second grade and my favorite subject is Math. I don't participate in any other sports, but I am interested in skateboard, BMX and I love X-box and Playstation. I have 4 dogs, 1 cat, 1 fish and 3 turtles. My favorite foods are organes and pizza. "Greenday" and "Trapt" are my favorite music and any racing video is my favorite.
My best career results to date have been in the 2007 Bluegrass Championship. I placed 2nd in the regional for Loretta Lynn's this year and finished 22nd overall in the Shaft-Oil class. Only three months after I began racing, I qualified at the Mini O's main event for Supercross. In 2008, I will move up to the 50cc (4-8) class and I will also ride the 65 (7-9) class.

I always give 100% on the track as well as in training and preparation for each evnet I always try to show great sportsmanship in winning as well as losing . I ride each night (weather permitting) and I love to jump rope. My favorite exercises are jumping rope and sit ups.

I am going to try to attend many of the Toyota Areanacross Series as possible in 2008 and continue weekly racing after the series concludes. I also am planning on attempting to qualify for Loretta Lynn's again in 2008 and get on the podium at the Mini O's.

My best motocross moment was making it to Loretta's and my worst moment was when my bike broke down at Loretta's. The best thing about being a rider is hanging out with my friend's each weekend. The hardest thing about being a beginner rider for me is riding in the extremely hot weather.
