Drifting Background: I got into drifting in 2021. Local influence and the internet during a national pandemic made me eager to get more involved in motorsports. The natural progression from video games, simulator drifting, and local drift scene pushed me to build a car. From then on it’s been a pinnacle focus of mine in my free time. I’ve always been keen to having fun, with a mindset to progress and push my limits. Whether that’s in competing or putting my cars together over the years. I made my way into drift Indy GP from 4 short years of hard aggressive progression with my friends. Being around and driving with the best. I’ve always been eager to find the limits and keep things fresh. My teammates and friends are a pivotal part of drifting and have made it possible to fight my way to DIGPs opening season. Thanks to proper results and success in Drift Indy Street League I get the chance to be a standout driver for DIGP!

Fun Fact: I can't see over the dashboard
