At the young age of five I qualified on a 50cc for Loretta Lynn&rsquo;s ,finishing 16<sup>th</sup> in the nation. The following year ran several AMA races throughout the US. On a 60cc I qualified for the nationals at Mitchell, In. taking home 13<sup>th</sup> at Loretta&rsquo;s. I also ran Missouri State Championship where I finished 1<sup>st</sup> in the mod and stock. I went to a KTM 65cc. I ran 2<sup>nd</sup> in the Tennessee State Championship and took victory at Kentucky State Championship. I took 1<sup>st</sup> at the area and the regional at Magnolia, Ark. Had a good shot at single digit number at Loretta&rsquo;s but raced with 4 fractured ribs and still claimed the 14<sup>th</sup> place in the nation, To better prepare myself for the upcoming year we traveled many different places and raced several AMA races. I rode 65cc and 80cc, qualifying 1<sup>st</sup> 65cc and 3<sup>rd</sup> in 80cc in areas, 2<sup>nd</sup> 65cc and 4<sup>th</sup> 80cc. Felt good about Loretta&rsquo;s , finished the year out with 5<sup>th</sup> overall on 65cc and 24<sup>th</sup> on the 80cc with mechanical problems.</p></font></font><font size="4" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><font size="4" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><p>Experiences 125/250f/450f</p></font></font><font size="2" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><font size="2" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><p>Due to a growth phase in height I went to 125cc. Because of AMA rules changing I had to run B-class and Schoolboy. I picked up a good ride with a local Yamaha dealer. Rode competitively in the top 5 of most of my races. While practicing at Muddy Creek I passed a lap rider, he clipped me off the face of a jump causing me to have serious injuries and was out several months for recovery. Since I was recovering from the accident, I didn&rsquo;t feel I was ready to try for Loretta&rsquo;s, I started racing a 250f at local races, GNCC, and Mid South&rsquo;s races. I placed in the top 5 of 90% of my races. At the age of 15 I stepped up to a 450f, running B class qualified for the nationals one more time. While practicing two weeks before my 4-stroke locked up in mid-air causing injuries to back and neck. Next year I rode 450f-B class qualifying for Loretta&rsquo;s again. I qualified in the top 3 on both stock and mod. Went to regional and qualified in the top 6. Before the national my Father was deployed to Iraq. Due to financial obligations and also losing my mechanic/my father, I decided to go pro and try to help my Mom. I have been riding several pro races throughout the United States. I have gathered all my information and applied for my pro license to ride Outdoor Nationals and hopefully the supercross.</p></font></font><font size="4" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><font size="4" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><p>Gratitude</p></font></font><font size="2" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><font size="2" face="Franklin Gothic Book"><p>I also like to participate in arena cross and super cross.
