Biography

A true ironman of desert racing, this Page, Arizona competitor has earned his stripes in SCORE's most demanding competition category - the Pro Moto Ironman class where solo riders tackle the entire Baja 1000 course without relief. Racing aboard his trusted Honda CRF450X, he represents the rugged determination that defines serious desert motorcycle racing.

The Pro Moto Ironman division stands as one of SCORE's most challenging classes, requiring riders to navigate the entire Baja peninsula alone through punishing terrain that claims many competitors. His participation in this elite category alongside fellow ironman riders like Rick Thornton and Kelly Oldroyd demonstrates his commitment to pushing personal limits in one of motorsport's most grueling endurance tests.

Based in the stunning desert landscape of Page, Arizona, near the iconic Glen Canyon Dam, he draws from the perfect training environment that mirrors Baja's challenging conditions. The high desert terrain, technical rock sections, and endless sandy washes of his home region provide ideal preparation for the unique demands of SCORE competition.

His dedication to the sport's purest form - solo desert racing - exemplifies the adventurous spirit that drives SCORE's most committed competitors to test themselves against Baja's unforgiving but spectacular landscape.
