The best thing about being on the road every weekend is being able to see all of the amazing cities the world has to offer, meeting all of the people in each town, and being able to try all of the local foods.

What is your greatest memory as a Monster Jam driver?
The first time I did a sky wheelie at Monster Jam University. Everyone was cheering, and that was the second I knew I wanted to keep following this dream and turn it into a career so I could continue to chase that rush every weekend in front of a house full of fans!
