Fifteen seasons of racing, and still learning.
I began racing motorcycles in 2005 while I was still competing in triathlons, and my progress accelerated once I could focus on one sport. I remain a student because I enjoy identifying my weaknesses and understanding what is holding me back. Improvement takes honesty, discipline, and a willingness to work on the things we would rather avoid. This section brings together race results, lessons from the tracks I have learned, coaching insights for developing the bike, body, and mind, and proven routines I rely on at the track. I share it all with gratitude for the mentors whose coaching and experience have helped shape my journey.
My first professional appearance was AMA at Road America in 2008, where I did not qualify to race. My first official professional race start was MotoAmerica at Utah in 2018.
Track days continue: the most recent entry is a September 13, 2026 track day at Thunderhill.
