Biography

A veteran desert racing competitor with deep roots in Baja California's off-road racing scene, this Chula Vista-based racer has been a consistent presence in SCORE Lites competition for over a decade. His experience spans multiple generations of desert racing, having competed alongside some of the sport's most legendary drivers while building his own impressive resume in the challenging 1200-class division.

Known for his strategic approach to long-distance desert racing, he has tackled the grueling courses that define SCORE International competition, from the technical terrain of the Baja 500 to the demanding multi-day challenges that test both man and machine. His participation in the historic 50th BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500 in 2018 demonstrated his commitment to the sport's most prestigious events, where he piloted a Chenowth chassis alongside co-drivers Carlos Albanez, Kevin Derby, Raul Gilbert, and Genesis Ortiz.

His consistency in the highly competitive SCORE Lites division showcases the dedication required to compete at the highest levels of international desert racing, where preparation and perseverance often determine success more than raw speed.
