Personal History
I am a highly competitive, passionate, and driven woman. If there is something I want to accomplish, I will work as hard as I possibly can and never give up until I reach my goals. Being confident and believing in yourself are the two most important aspects of racing.
I grew up playing in the dirt. I got my first dirtbike when I was 6 years old, a PW50. My dad owned a DRZ 400 Suzuki at the time and always thought I would love something with a motor. Was he ever right! I started racing that year and loved every heart pumping, adrenaline rushing minute of it. When I was 9, I moved up to a KX60 and broke my wrist the first day on it. However, that never stopped me from getting right back on after I got that bright pink cast removed.
Now 15 years later with a degree in elementary/special education, I have a love for teaching and helping students succeed in and out of the classroom. It is so important for students to have role models in their lives and I am honored to say that I am a positive role model for my students.
Mid-way through last season, I broke my wrist again....shattered it in three places, the scaphoid, ulna, and radius bones, after crashing on a jump. I had a 3 hour surgery to get 12 screws and a plate placed in my wrist, which will stay forever! It has been a long recovery, with months of physical therapy, however, it has not stopped my love for riding!
I currently own a 125 KTM and recently bought a 2005 YZ250F. I love riding, it's in my blood!
Riding Goals
I plan on racing in the Women's Class at the Mainline series and District 6 in Pennsylvania this upcoming season. One of my goals is to educate young girls about the sport of motocross and let them know that it's not just for boys.
