Long-Term Goal
To progress my driving performance and career to the point of being a paid professional in automotive racing.
Background & Non-Racing Interests
I grew up in Nashville TN and at 8 years old watched the Nashville Predators in the NHL Stanley Cup finals and decided I wanted to play hockey. It certainly helped my father is Canadian and has a deep history in the sport. I quickly demonstrated exceptional skill as a goaltender and played at the AA level for both the Nashville Predators and Nashville Flyers development programs until the spring of 2026 earning a reputation as a “clutch” goalie with numerous championship game wins. Outside hockey, I am also a very accomplished golfer and teaching myself how to play the guitar.
How Racing Started
I had always had an interest in racing and was an F1 and NASCAR fan for many years before I took the wheel. I began racing a used Tony Kart in 2023 at a small track in Shelbyville TN and immediately demonstrated strong racing instincts and by 2025 was racing full-time at the nationally recognized New Castle Motorsports Park (NCMP) in New Castle IN.
During the 2025 campaign at NCMP I raced at the Junior level and captured 17 podium finishes, as well as 2 first place results and multiple pole positions. I completed the season in 3rd place overall across all Junior categories.
2027 Racing Schedule & Goals
The 2027 season will focus on building on the learnings of my 2026 campaign. I will be racing a full season of the Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup series as well as another full season of the USSA Kenyon Midget series.
In MX-5 Cup I will once again drive for the McCumbee McAleer Racing team (MMR) carrying the #81 for the 2027 season. In this series my goal is to be consistently competitive in each event and compete for the Rookie of The Year title. Similarly in the Kenyon Midget series, I will once again pilot the #81 for the Jeff Hill Trailer Sales team. I plan to build on a very productive 2026 rookie campaign and compete for the series championship with multiple podiums and wins.
My development will continue to be guided by veteran IMSA team manager and driver Owen Trinkler.
