Height/Weight:      5’7”/145 lbs.

Education:                 Junior in High School

HOBBIES: Big game hunting, offshore fishing, wakeboarding, rebuilding classic cars 

RACE TRACK TIES: Circuit of The Americas. Being from Texas and getting to race at a track where family and friends can support me feels amazing 

CHARITY SUPPORT: I have been a member of the Young Men’s Service League aka YMSL for three years, which has allowed me to serve my community beside my mom. We get to spend quality time together while making an impact on our community. I have been blessed to have had valuable interactions with the people we serve that have helped shape my character. Volunteering with Special Olympics, Habitat for Humanity, Meals on Wheels and Snack Packs for Kids have been some of my favorite charities YMSL serves 

RACING GOAL: Win championships and prove myself 

RACING HERO: Michael Schumacher 

FAVORITE SPORTS TO WATCH: F1 (Ferrari) and Football (Denver Broncos) 

FAVORITE SPORT TO PLAY: Driving cars 

TRAINING PREFERENCES: Test days are my favorite way to train. I have to be able to work on the car I’m driving or at least understand the engineering of it. If I put my hands on it, the car makes more sense to me and I can drive it better because I have a clear picture of what the car is doing and how to get the most out of it 

BUCKET LIST ITEM: Skydive 

FAVORITE PLACE TO VISIT: The coast. I grew up in the sand and surf and as soon as I smell the water, I feel home 

THE ONE PERSON I WOULD MOST LIKE TO MEET AND WHY: Jos Verstappen 

INTERESTING NOTE: As much as I love to hunt and fish, I have a weak stomach when it comes to gutting an animal, like a deer, or cleaning a large fish.
