Driver Information
My passion for racing comes from what that 12-year-old kid at his first ever race with his dad - the Indianapolis 500 of all races - felt the first time he saw 33 fire-breathing racecars go screaming into Turn 1 in anger for the first time. The undying fire for racing was lit for me that day and has only continued to burn more intensely since.
I left home in Rhode Island to come to California in 2011 and found out about dirt racing through a local indoor kart track in Sacramento. After some time and not very much convincing, I went to my first outlaw kart race at Red Bluff in the winter of 2013 and have been on the roller coaster ride ever since. I spent several years working on many other peoples' cars throughout the pit area, and getting to do a lot of really cool stuff on and off the wrenches all across the country. After finally having my fill of only being on one side of the catchfence, I purchased an outlaw kart of my own during Covid summer and put myself in the drivers' seat. In the past year and a half of being a racecar driver, all I can say for sure is that nobody has more fun than I do.
