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 place. 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 tracks are Ballance MX in Smiths Grove, KY,and Daniel Boone in London, KY. My favorite Indiana track is Podium One in Charlestown, IN, and Dirt Country in Blanchester, OH is my favorite Ohio track.  Muddy Creek in TN and Gatorback in FL are two of my favorite national motocross tracks. My favorite Pro rider is Scott Metz and my favorite amateur rider is Logan Spoonamore.
I am in the third grade and my favorite subjects are Math and Science. I also  participate in basketball.  I like hunting, fishing, BMX, and skateboarding.  I have 2 dogs (Daisy Mae & Gizmo) and 3 turtles.

I always give 100% on the track as well as in training and preparation for each event.  I always try to show great sportsmanship in winning as well as losing . I practice, have fun, and practice. My favorite exercises are sit-ups, push-ups and to jump rope. My goals for 2009 are to make it to Loretta's and place in the top 10 in the 50 cc (7-8) class at amateur nationals.

My best motocross moment has been racing at the World Arenacross Finals in Las Vegas in October 2008 with friends and family there. My worst moment was crashing out at the Amateur MX Regionals. 

I think the best thing about being a rider is hanging with best friends each weekend. But the hardest thing is the Summer heat with all of your gear on.
