About

Fast today. Built for the long game.

I race Spec Miata — one of the deepest, most competitive fields in North American motorsport, where a tenth of a second separates the winner from tenth place. It's the class that exposes everything: racecraft, consistency, tire management, and the discipline to carry momentum through traffic without giving an inch.

I treat every weekend like a professional program — prepared, data-driven, and focused on results. That's the standard the top of the sport runs on, and it's the standard I hold myself to now. The destination is clear: a professional, factory-supported sportscar seat in IMSA and WEC.

  • Front-running pace in a spec, driver-defining class
  • Data & video review after every session
  • Trained to endurance-racing fitness standards
  • Professional approach to every race weekend

The Trajectory

The line to professional sportscar racing.

Spec Miata is the foundation. The goal is the world's premier endurance championships — and every session now is aimed squarely at getting there.

NOW

Spec Miata

Racing at the front of a stacked field — sharpening racecraft, consistency, and decision-making every weekend.

NEXT

Pro One-Make Series

Taking the step into professional one-make racing: more power, advanced ABS and traction control systems, and racing within top-level sports car paddocks.

GOAL

IMSA & WEC

A professional, factory-supported seat in the world's top endurance championships — Daytona, Sebring, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
