I started out as a member of the pit crew on “The Patriot”. At the age of 21 after showing interest to drive, Dan Rodoni put me in the driver seat of “Tropical Thunder”. In my younger years I took center stage at the Watsonville speedway driving dirt track stock cars.  

My first weekend in the truck I smoked the competition in racing. This win gave me the confidence I needed to continue to compete with the some of the fastest trucks in the industry. I am motivated, competitive, fun, and hard working.

To prepare for the seasonwe spend many hours going through the truck to make sure that everything is secure and ready for the start of the season.  I try catch up on my sleep because once the season starts we will be on the GO! The favorite stop on the series tour is Vegas baby!  

This season I’m looking to; improve my stats, tear some stuff up, and get lots of BIG AIR!! . Monster trucks are Fast, Powerful, Exciting and Destructive.

The best part of being a Monster Truck Driver is no doubt the adrenaline rush and the meeting and hanging out with devoted fans. Kids who want to become monster truck drivers need to stay in school and believe in your dreams. The best part of signing an autograph for a kid is the excitement in their eyes when they get to meet the guy in the “BIG TRUCK”
