My love of racing began at the age of 5, when I started racing quarter midgets.  Then, when I turned 10, I moved on to a 125cc micro sprint and won the first race I entered in that class.  By the age of 15, I was racing in the sportsman class placing 2nd in points at my home track my first year.  The following year I won the championship in the sportsman class.  I moved up to the 600cc micro sprint class when I was 16.  I have won championships at every level of racing I’ve entered.
