How did you get started in racing?
I started off crewing for independent teams, then went to Monster Jam to crew for a year. After I left there, I started my own monster truck talk show and started driving for Triple B Motorsports.
What is your greatest accomplishment in racing?
Crewing for Team Tomfoolery in Tampa, FL in 2020 and Jester getting his first stadium freestyle and overall event championship.
Do you have any pre-show rituals?
During the National Anthem, I take that time to thank God and pray for the safety of everyone involved in the show, as well as praying our troops come home, and our firefighters, police officers, and EMT’s.
What is your goal for the Jamborees?
To pickup a win in the 30th anniversary Monster Patrol.
Is there anything else you would like 4-Wheel Jamboree fans to know?
I grew up watching the Jamboree shows as a kid hoping one day to have the opportunity to compete in the event. Now that I’m here, I’m leaving it all out on the track!
