While many karters started competing at a very early age, my brother and I didn't find the sport until a couple of years ago, starting our careers in the Arrive and Drive program @ Goodwood Kartways. We immediately took to the sport and purchased our own karts. We evolved as drivers and expanded our experience mainly karting at Goodwood Kartways and Mosport Kartways.
By the end of my rookie year, I was attending international tournaments and training as hard as I could. I have debuted my talent on the International stage placing second in the Mini Rok Vortex Trophy race, my first time racing in Italy ever! I then completed the Skip Barber racing school and began my journey to cars, racing in the North American Radical Cup series. I had great success earning podium finishes in every appearance along with a clean sweep of the Toronto Honda Indy in the pro1340 class. I am currently competing in the GB4 series in the U.K. and have topped the charts in USF2000 testing and Combine.
My hope is to one day make it to IndyCar or Formula1.
Follow me in 2025-2026 as I continue my racing dreams.
Every day feels like a gift. I am grateful to my family and to my supporters for making this possible!
My support team consists of my coaches and my family. I have had the support of many people at the karting track and in racing, working alongside some amazing people. The most memorable karting moment is when I was in Italy racing with EnergyCorse, there were many people who didn't think I would succeed there racing with the best, but I did.
I moved to cars in 2024, racing the 1340 Radical with RySpec Racing Team. In my inaugural race, I earned 3 podiums in 3 races. I'm also currently racing in the GB4 Championship in 2025 with Graham Brunton Racing. I'm very thankful to everyone that has helped me reach my goals, let's change the world!
I believe in inclusion first. We are all in it together. While I am very competitive, I also want to support all the competitors as we strive to make Motorsports great. I work every day to better myself and to better the awareness of racing by presenting myself in a professional manner and showing others that inclusion matters. I volunteer my time to different organizations and speak at different engagements in order to provide mentorship and help aspiring athletes follow me.

I have raced ROK, Rotax, IAME and Briggs and have various successes in each! I am recently part of FAT karting league racing the next generation of electric go karts. My best memory is my last to second podium finish at the Ron Fellows Motomaster Karting Championship race, earning me a Team Spirit award for my dedication and perseverance. I have also had success in Italy at the ROK Cup Superfinals, running with EnergyCorse and I was the only Canadian in my class to make it to the final. My goal is to earn another ticket back to the Superfinals in 2025 and make that podium.
I am currently transitioning into cars and have participated in the 2025 FEED Racing School in France this June and tested in a 1340 Radical car. I'm currently being sponsored by the Chip Ganassi Racing Team with Journie Rewards. My plan is to continue testing throughout 2025 and try the USF junior at the 2025 Indianapolis Motor Speedway where I can further showcase my talents.
I have may supports including the previously mentioned Journie Rewards as well as becoming the newest member of the Road to Racing team. I would also love to thank my community sponsors, my grandparents and most of all my parents!
I believe in sportsmanship. I am extremely competitive and stand for fairness. I treat everyone with respect and dignity. Off the grid, I'm happy, sociable and engaging. I do everything to the best of my ability pushing everyone around me to be their best self. My goal is to get better and faster every session and if I do that then I know I'm succeeding.

Motorsports is a very expensive sport and to be competitive, thousands of dollars each race is required to meet that podium goal. If you're interested in helping us and discussing opportunities for your business, contact us now!
