How did you get started in racing?
I started racing when I was 10 years old. My parents bought me a Honda 70 when I was 7 and my dad took me to watch a race in Prince George and thought it was pretty cool and have been riding and racing ever since.
What is your favourite track and why?
My favourite track would have to be Raymond, Alberta. It is a fast track, great dirt, lots of different lines, and big jumps.

Who is your favourite rider and why?
I would have to say Justin Bogle. I think that he has the coolest style.
What Canadian Pro do you look up to and why?
Well, I have two riders that I look up to: Ross Johnson and Brock Hoyer. Ross always gives it a 100% and never gives up. He has taught me a lot of things about racing and inspires me to do my best. Brock Hoyer is very focused and always maintains a great attitude and is a positive role model. .
Who is your hero?
I would have to say both of my parents. They have always supported me throughout all of my racing. No matter what my finishes are, I know I can always count on them to be there for me.
What are your goals for this season, and what is it going to take to reach them?
My goals for this season is to get out and get as much seat time as I can, stay consistent and keep doing the best that I can do.

What are your biggest accomplishments?
My biggest accomplishments would have to be being chosen by Team Green Kawasaki to go to California to test the 2015 KX250F last year and winning 2012 and 2014 Team Green Rider of the Year for Kawasaki.
What is your favourite part about going to the races?
My favourite part about going to the races would be hanging out with all my motocross buddies and my family and just getting to race.
What do you like to do when you aren’t racing?
When I am not racing, I am training at CrossFit and I enjoy snowboarding when it’s not too cold!
