When I'm away from the racetrack I: am either working or spending time with family, friends and my dogs!
Favorite racing memory: Getting to race my dad in the sand drags! He was in a top fuel dragster and I was in a blown alcohol dragster, and I won!
Top accomplishment in racing: Getting our Gelish dragster to qualify 2nd at a national event!
Toughest opponent: Couldn't say I have one. I like to treat every pass no different from any other. Just focus on myself and hope we get the win light!
Favorite opponent: Chris Demke – he's an awesome guy!
Favorite drivers outside TAD: Tony Schumacher, Alexis DeJoria, and Erica Enders.
Personal heroes: My dad; he's the most hard-working and determined guy I know. He's helped make my dreams come true and has always believed in me; he's my rock!
I race because: There is something addicting about the way it feels to sit in a 4500 HP dragster, from getting strapped in to the launch. It feels like home to me!
I race TAD because: I want to continue to push and challenge myself in racing. TAD is the perfect playground for that.
Pre-race rituals or superstitions: High five all of my awesome crew guys before every run and always get in on the right side!
Nobody knows that I: Cheered in high school – I traded in my pom poms for a fire suit no problem!
If I didn't race I would: Be totally lost! I would always have to be involved with racing, whether I'm in the seat or not.
