Bio: Ive lived in La Verne, CA my entire life. Although I race primarily on the road, I race cross country and downhill on the mountain bike once in a blue moon. When Im not on one of my bikes, I like to hike, go camping, go snowboarding, or relax at home.
I graduated from Cal Poly Pomona in December 2009 with a BS in Biology and a Chemistry minor. Eventually, Id like to either go into medicine or research, but for now Ive put my education hold to pursue a career in cycling; Im fortunate to have the support of my parents, because without them I would not have that opportunity.
