“I ride to process, I ride to think, to connect with people, to connect with nature. I ride to just pedal, it's my way to meditate and to disconnect too.”

MY DREAM CAREER OUTSIDE OF CYCLING IS…
Well that's a curveball question! I don't really think of myself as a career person, I like to chase things I am interested in and that would be something that uses creativity to solve problems. I like working with people to create things!
MY FAVORITE ACADEMIC SUBJECT IS…
Art!
MY EARLIEST MEMORY ON A BIKE IS…
Tipping from side to side on my training wheels, riding straight out of our garage into our hedge!
ADVICE TO UP-and-COMING CYCLISTS:
Do things that make you happy, but know that the choice to be happy is all yours!
Why do you support outride?
I believe that riding bikes can dramatically improve anyones life, though the access to the equipment can be limited and exclusive. Any opportunity to get kids on bikes is a positive gain for their health and wellbeing and that is something I support 100%.
