Biography

A veteran Trophy Truck competitor with deep roots in Southern California's desert racing scene, this Newport Beach pilot has consistently challenged the sport's elite drivers across multiple SCORE championship seasons. Racing the grueling Baja peninsula courses since at least 2018, he has demonstrated remarkable persistence and skill behind the wheel of his Chevy Silverado built by Racer Engineering.

His racing resume includes starts in the prestigious SCORE Baja 500, where he has lined up alongside legendary competitors like Robby Gordon, Rob MacCachren, and the McMillin racing dynasty. In 2018, he tackled the 542-mile Baja 500 course as part of a 328-entry field representing 32 states and multiple countries, showcasing the international appeal of SCORE's premier events. The following season saw him maintain his competitive edge in the 2019 SCORE championship standings, earning valuable points in both the San Felipe 250 and Baja 500 rounds.

Known for his technical approach and steady driving style, he represents the dedicated privateer racers who form the backbone of SCORE Trophy Truck competition. His partnership with co-driver Dale Dondel has proven effective in navigating Baja's challenging terrain, from high-speed desert sections to technical mountain passes that have claimed many competitors over the years.
