Since I wrote my first article on my middle school’s soccer team when I was twelve, I’ve spent the past ten years cultivating work that has told the stories of hundreds of athletes from dozens of countries across dozen of sports.

My experience has mostly been focused in motorsports, a sport I grew fondly of as a young child due to my connection with my father, who was avidly into racing. Since then, I’ve founded USOpenWheelNation.com, a comprehensive media outlet focusing on young drivers aged 14-22 coming up through the ranks of American motorsports. I’ve become a trusted source for telling the stories of those seeking to chase their dreams and reach the next level.

My work with USOpenWheelNation made me the first person writing for an outlet they created to utilize that work to win the Rod Campbell Award, the pre-eminent award for young professionals making an impact in motorsports journalism and marketing. Throughout my time in the fellowship that came with winning the award, I traveled the country and honed my skills as I grew more acute of how I can use my voice to connect those my age.

Beyond motorsports, my accolades have extended through the student journalism level at both the high school and college level, where I am the most-read sportswriter in the digital history of both newspapers, writing over 320 articles across eight years, on top of being a state and national level award winner. While I do not earn accolades for this, I pride my accomplishments in mentorship and leadership even greater. During my time as sports editor for Lehigh University’s newspaper, six people I mentored as writers had gone to serve as either managing editors or as editor-in-chief of the paper.

Additionally, my abilities have gained extra notice and have allowed me to work as a part of the streaming operations teams for higher-level events, including the 2024 and 2026 Olympic Games.

Whether it is within motorsports, in other sports, or not in sports at all, I look forward to being able to take my leadership skills with me to someday lead a team in a professional work setting, as well as bringing my attention to detail and consistent work ethic.
