A veteran of SCORE desert racing with deep roots in Baja competition, this Southern California racer has carved out an impressive legacy across multiple decades of off-road racing.

With over two decades of experience navigating Baja's unforgiving terrain, he represents the dedication and perseverance that defines SCORE desert racing. His ability to adapt to different racing platforms while maintaining competitive performance has earned him respect among his peers in the tight-knit desert racing community.
