Quite frankly, you’re a badass on two wheels. Your rider resume speaks for itself. What led you to decide AmPro Yamaha and GNCC was a direction you wanted to go in your career?

I’ve always expected myself to end up doing GNCC at some point. I just expected it would be much later in my career. After talking to Randy and testing the bike I knew it was something I wanted to try. There is so little for women in motocross, so it was amazing to see how much support there is for women in the GNCC world. After seeing what Randy has done in the past and hearing how willing he was to work with me and train me to get up to speed I knew it was something I needed to do. 

What challenges do you anticipate making the jump from moto to off-road racing?

I think the biggest challenge is going to be just starting over and basically re-learning a lot of things. All the other women I am going to be racing against in the WXC class have been riding in the woods for years and I will have just a few months so that's going to be a massive challenge as well.

You’ve been an incredible ambassador of women’s racing over the years. From racing yourself, to being there in the booth with us at Loretta’s, Mini O’s, and even here and there at Pro Motocross. Over the last few years the amateur, and Pro WXC ranks have grown, and then grown some more. How excited are you to continue contributing to the sport, and specifically women’s sports?

I am so excited to be trying something new and maybe bring some of the moto women with me over to the woods and showing people that there is a spot for women’s racing everywhere. You just have to be willing to make the jump and try something new.

Are you still going to be racing moto or will GNCC become the only focus for 2024?

GNCC will be my primary focus but there is still talk of me doing some moto through the year as well.

What has been your experience racing off-road over the years?

I have very little off-road racing experience. I have raced one sprint enduro and maybe two- or three-days riding in the woods, so I haven't seen much just yet. From what I have seen is its going to be an amazing year and I am going to learn so much throughout the season.

What has training looked like for you? Has anything changed in your training, anticipating running GNCC?

Training has definitely changed a bit for me. I have found myself at the gym a lot more than in previous years. Working a lot more on strength and endurance for the two-hour long races.

Enough about racing, what’s life look like outside of the race track? I know, I know, that’s where the fun is. But if you’re not racing or training, what’s a fun weekend look like for you?

Definitely hanging out with some friends, spending Saturday night watching supercross and maybe going go-karting or something else like that.
