Q&A - Competition

How did you get started?

Zack says "go to a race which me, novice is really easy" After coming of the track, almost puking and catching my breath I said you lier. Well I place 3rd at Motomasters even though I wrecked 3 times on a bone stock TRX450ER and was in love.

List your competitive highlights:

Placing 2nd at Motomasters in Quad Am after a almost last place start. Winning overall season points at Royal Mountain Supercross last year.

What are you planning for next season?

Running Quad Expert, hope to be able to finish in the top three for season points at Royal Mountain Supercross. Hopefully get some sponsors so I can build a quad that will help me focus on training and not missing a race due to machanical issues like this year.

What has been your biggest accomplishment?

Graduating College with High Honors.

Q&A - Personal

What inspires you to compete?

Love to ride, fly through the air, cheer on team mates, get team mates ready in the gate, help team work on their machines, love the whole race scene.

Describe your style...

Take it to the next level. Lets Go What are you Waiting For!!! ALWAYS HELP WHEN YOU CAN!!!

Employment / Experience Summary

Technical Account Manager and Sales Professional in IT Services for 3.5 years at Tech II Business Services. Was involved in over 1 million in business activity in the last two years, no fancy tricks just show up everyday and work hard. Same with riding, the more seat time the better you will be.

How's Life Treating You?

Great!!! Proud Dad and Husband, love my job and I am healthy enough to ride. Could use a couple more dollars in my pocket but who doesn't.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

I don't want to grow up, riding keeps me young!!! Responsible yes, grow up no.
