Q: Where did you go to school?
A: I graduated High School in 2008 and I am taking on line courses through a local community college towards a Business/Accounting Degree. In 2010, I completed the courses to become a certified personal trainer.
Q: Tell us about your racing career.
A: 2010 was my 15th year of racing Dirt track and I would not be able to live without it! I started riding at the ripe age of 4, and I entered my first race the month before I turned five. When not at the races and during the offseason, riding and training consume most of my time. I ride my crf 100 around our mini-dirt track and I ride my crf 450 on our motorcross track and in the woods. During the busy race season, I am able to practice only a couple days per week. Since we are on the road a lot, my training is not as substantial as my offseason workouts. During the offseason I train at the gym and work out with a personal trainer. During the winter months, I ride my crf 100 and crf 450 on the ice at local ponds and lakes. Last winter I went to Neeses,South Carolina and ran their winter series.
Q: What are some other interests that you have?
A: Most of my time is spent traveling to races, working out with my trainer and at the gym, working part time at the gym or for my grandpa, or practicing. I also like to play basketball and go to the movies.
