A veteran desert racer with over two decades of SCORE competition experience, this Long Beach-based driver has established himself as a consistent threat in Class 1 unlimited open-wheel racing.

Racing primarily in the demanding Class 1 category, he has demonstrated remarkable consistency and skill navigating the brutal terrain of Baja California. His most notable achievement includes serving as co-driver for Brad Wilson during the 2017 SCORE Baja 1000, where their team secured second place in Class 1 while claiming the season championship.

Known for his strategic approach and technical expertise, he has competed alongside some of desert racing's most accomplished drivers, including multiple collaborations with the Wilson racing family. His experience spans the full spectrum of SCORE's challenging courses, from the high-speed sections of the Baja 500 to the endurance-testing marathon of the Baja 1000, cementing his reputation as a dependable and skilled competitor in off-road racing's premier series.
