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.
2026 Racing Schedule & Goals
The 2026 season will be focused on making the transition from karting to full-time auto racing. I will be racing in the Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup series for select events with the McCumbee McAleer Racing team (MMR).
Additionally, I will compete in the 2026 season of the USSA Kenyon Midget Series which races 14 events on asphalt and dirt tracks across Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Kentucky. I will be driving the #81 car for the Jeff Hill Trailer Sales team. My goal is multiple podiums and to be a contender for the Rookie of the Year honors in the series.
My development is guided by veteran IMSA team manager and driver Owen Trinkler.
