Driver Information

Born & raised in Blairsville, Georgia, I was raised at the dirt track (Tri-County in Brasstown, NC), spending countless weekends in the stands watching the roar of the engines and the thrill of competition. From a young age, I would look at my dad and say, “One day, I'll be out there on that track." That dream never left me, it only grew stronger with time.

In 2021, I turned that dream into reality when I began racing in the Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) class. Those first laps taught me discipline, patience, and the drive to keep improving no matter the challenges. I embraced every setback as a lesson and every victory as motivation to push even harder.

By 2025, I advanced into 602 crate racing, a step that represents not only my growth as a driver but also the fulfillment of the promises I made to myself years ago. Moving into a higher, faster, and more competitive class is proof that hard work, resilience, and passion can turn childhood dreams into reality.

Racing is more than just a sport to me, it's a journey of perseverance and self-belief. Every time I strap into the car, I carry with me the determination to never give up, the lessons I've learned along the way, and the hope to inspire others to chase their dreams with the same fire I had as that kid in the stands.
