About Me
I started racing when I was 4 years old. I grew up in Sacramento CA. Through the years I just progressed, and I always knew I wanted to be a professional motocross racer. After doing all the amateur stuff, Loretta Lynn’s and all that, I turned pro at 17. I moved to southern California and did a year of riding as a privateer, then riding for Yamaha support and other good sponsors, I finally obtained a factory KTM ride. I never got to race for KTM in a Supercross, but got some races under my belt, and then had a serious injury in November 1999 which has left me as a quadriplegic. I’ve had a lot of battles since then, but I’ve got to where I am now, and had set a lot of goals for myself. Now for the past three years I have managed the Star Racing/Yamaha Race Team. Our operation has slowly grown into one of the premier Lites Supercross teams. Also, just after getting injured I started writing/interviewing for Racer X magazine/website.
