INTERESTING NOTE: I let go of racing in 2019 after being so financially handicapped and started my journey to become a firefighter/paramedic. After a very hard three years I was one month out from being hired by the best department in all of Florida to start my career when my current team gave me the chance of my life in 2023 to race in F4, which we went on to dominate. Right place, right time!
