1) How/who you got started in your career- Ever since i was little i have always been around the sport of snowmobile racing, and its been in my blood since birth. When i was tweleve my dad took me took a local race where we bumped into a friend of his. He was racing his ski-doo 440 in the pro-class and asked if i wanted to race in the junior division with his sled. I quickly answered yes and raced that day. Soon after we b0ught a polaris sled and have been racing ever since. I Raced the eastern circuit until i got picked up by the factory, and have been racing the WPSA national tour ever since.

2) Highlights of your career or favorite moments Theres alot of moments in my career that mean alot to me. The ones that stand out the most are getting 9th overall in Hillcross at the winter Xgames, Semi-pro Rookie of the year in 05, and Second overall in 06-07 in the Semi-pro Open class. I will also be competing in the 08 Winter X-games Snocross, and the Semi-pro class on the WPSA tour.

3) what you do in the summer to stay prepared for winter. Durning the summer I race dirt-bikes to keep my conditioning up, and train in the gym as much as I can. I also moutainbike, ride 110's, and hagout with my friends. The huge advantage of our job is we get to travel all the time and see new places. But the summer is a good time to catch up with friends and family because were always on the road, and its definitely nice to get home. Snocross to me is a job, but its the best job i could have asked for.
