Summary

With unique experience as a professional racing driver and in-depth knowledge of the racing business, I have built a solid foundation and valuable resource for any organization. Despite a life-altering incident that left me paralyzed from the mid-chest area down, I have never allowed it to hinder my pursuit of excellence. From a young age, I have encountered challenges, including multiple fractures and spinal injuries, but I consider them mere bumps in the road. Determined to prove my capabilities, I have surpassed expectations and achieved feats that most able-bodied individuals can only dream of. With unwavering motivation and an unyielding drive to succeed, I am fully committed to making a significant impact in any professional endeavor.
