Sailed on a merchant ship to train as a marine engineer for the Coast Guard while studying for a bachelors in mechanical engineering. After college, I was hired by one of the major operators in the energy industry. I ended up training to become a project manger for an offshore vessel but that wasn't where my true passion lied. I needed to find an outlet in order way to break away from the daily monotony. I then rekindled the flame of my old childhood passion of motocross and other action sports. I have always followed the sport and industry trends but never thought I would have the opportunity to swing a leg back over a bike. From that first twist of the throttle, I was hooked and figured I would do what I can to see how far I can take it. In my short time back, I have had the opportunity to qualify for a Loretta Lynn Regional Championship over the last couple of years race alongside some of my idles including Robbie Reynard. I am completely engrossed into the action sports industry and feel it is time to be apart of something I have an insatiable love for. I am highly motivated and success driven especially working in a team atmosphere. I looking for a career that allows me to use my technical background and skills I have acquired throughout my previous ventures.
