Biography

I decided at age 10 that I will one day become an off-road racer. Unfortunately, it took me a little over 20 years to be able to finally do it. I bought a used Pro NA UTV 4 years ago and rebuilt it from the ground up. I needed a co-driver and my first few choices dropped out. Luckily a good neighbor of mine, Cory Whidden, who I had talked to for a total of 2 hours volunteered to spend several days traveling and camping out in the desert for a local race in El Paso, TX about 11 hours from our hometown. We both had zero experience but ended up placing 2nd in class. We proceeded to race and finish the Baja 1000 and the Silver State 300. The other co-driver for the team is Justin, a gearhead buddy of mine, who has raced dirt bikes on the professional level in the Baja and is currently a pro diesel drag racer. Justin and I are ready to push the car and hopefully leave with some extra hardware to bring back to Texas!
