Driver Information
I started racing in April 2021. My home track is Silver Dollar Speedway, in Amarillo, TX. I started racing after my state NM, was shut down, due to Covid. My dad raced for over 20yrs. He raced everything, from stock cars to modifieds, Limited Late Models to mini sprints and 360 Sprints. He always wanted me to race, but at the time, I wasn't interested. I played all sports, and after being shut down, decided I had to do something. After my first race, I realized, this is where my heart was! I've had some great experiences, met some amazing people, and have enjoyed every minute of it.
My first year, running for points at Silver Dollar Speedway, I won 2nd in points and Rookie of the Year! This was a big accomplishment for me, as I had no expectations, but to learn. I learned a lot, grew a lot, and realized this was my passion, and I wanted to go farther! So, we decided to get the kart ready, and race in the MWRS Winter Series.
Fast forward to February 25th and 26th,2022. I missed the first race of the MWRS Winter Series, so Wichita Falls, TX, was my first Winter Series race and first race of 2022. I did pretty good Friday, it was definitely a change from my home track, as it was smaller. Then Saturday, I did great in my Heat race and was looking forward to the feature. Unfortunately, I was in a freak racing accident. I was told I had broken my back, injured my arm and neck. After being off for 6 months, I came back and have been going ever since.
I've been racing in Abilene, Amarillo, Slaton, and Shawnee, OK. I plan to run for points in 2023 at both Silver Dollar Speedway in Amarillo, TX and at ATP Motosports in Abilene, TX. Excited, for this next year and the new opportunities, that will come with it.
