Biography

I am a First Generation Native of Hendersonville. My dad started biking as a hobby when I was very young and introduced me to mountain biking early on in Pisgah and Bent Creek. Tearing up those trails was fun but not my favorite thing. As I grew into my teens I developed a passion for road riding. I have many great memories riding the highways and back roads in Mills River, Etowah and Brevard. Every year my dad would give my brother and I membership to the BRBC for Christmas and we went on many group rides in Hendersonville and Etowah in the late 90’s and early 2000’s as well as participating on *very* early Saturday morning Trail Maintenance in Bent Creek, Pisgah and Turkey Pen. My dad was the Coordinator for the Flyer’s predecessor the “Hilly Hellacious” and I used to do course marking with him so I’m excited to get back into the swing of things Volunteering and Riding with the Club. After high school I fell away from riding and it’s only been in the past 2-3 years that I have really taken it back up. But I have taken it back up with a passion! I ride to work a few times a week starting in March and going through October and any chance I can get on the weekends. Often I will take opportunities to ride to family gatherings or trips to the local pool and my kids love waving and saying hi when they pass me on the way! My wife and I live in Hoopers Creek where we are happily raising our 2yo and 5yo daughters as well as a loveable muttly dog!
