I started racing bikes at Trophy Cup in 2023, which led me to Team Oregon and into the amazing PDX bike community! I love riding and racing road, gravel, and cross. Always excited to ride anywhere with new or old friends and teammates!

I'm originally from Pittsburgh, but a relationship at the start of COVID brought me to Portland. We broke up immediately, but I found PDX to be a wonderful place to live and years later I'm still here! I transformed from a commuter to a racer 3 years ago and never looked back. I ride all the bikes - road, grabble, CX, MTB. So stoked on bikes!

I began riding bikes in 2021 during the pandemic as a way to get out and about. The following year, I started to get more serious and did my first race, the OBRA Crit Championship. I got 3rd out of 3 but I was hooked. Since then, I've branched out and I now race road, CX and gravel. 2025 will by my second year on Team O and I'm looking forward to all the racing to come this year.

I have been racing since 2016, when I was peer pressured into a team time trial to help the University of Maryland cycling team with conference points. This was a slippery slope, and I eventually dove into the world of collegiate road racing. I moved to Portland in 2022, and joining Team Oregon was the first thing I did. Now, I do race the occasional road, TT, CX, and MTB race, but most of my bike racing includes a swim and a run for some reason.

I bought a bike in 2018 to try and get get out more and exercise, but really got into cycling during the pandemic in 2020. I moved to Portland in September 2021 from Florida and joined the team that November. This will be my second year with Team Oregon and second year racing. I enjoy racing road, gravel, cyclocross and have done a few short track MTB races too.
