About Me
A passion for motorsport that began in my childhood has evolved into a deep understanding of the art of racing. From starting out in karting to getting the opportunity to drive a historic Formula 1 car, I've developed a versatile approach to driving that transcends any single category.
My journey began at age 8 in karting, where I honed the fundamental skills that define my smooth, adaptable driving style today. This foundation has proven invaluable across a diverse range of machinery, from my personal Porsche 924 to the pinnacle of motorsport.
What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to any vehicle while maintaining a composed, precise approach. Whether it's managing the delicate balance of a historic car or extracting maximum performance from modern machinery, I try to bring a methodical and technical mindset to every drive.
As someone who lives and breathes motorsport, I'm constantly seeking to expand my experience across different platforms and challenges. This adaptability, combined with a deep respect for the sport's heritage, makes me equally at home in both classic and contemporary racing environments.
My Journey
Ever since I could walk I was going up to the TV whenever racing was on and making car noises according to my parents, it was clear to them that my passion was in racing cars thats why In 2011 when i was 8 years old I started my journey in karting. I started like most young drivers do, driving at my local track in North Wales. I started at local competitions and gradually ranked my way up to some national events and moving through from Cadets to Juniors racing with teams such as SPR and Modus Mortorsport.
After graduating from Juniors I decided it was time to step up to cars, passing my ARDS test in Anglesey and looking to where I could race, I tested with a Formula 4 team but could not gather enough funding to compete and thats where I thought my dream of being a racing driver ended.
A few years later after spending time in university I realised that racing is something I can't get away from and got the money together to buy a Porsche 924 and made into a car that i'm very proud to own and use it on a variety of tracks.
It was around this time that I became a member of the GRRC (Goodwood Road & Racing Club) and interact more with the world of historic racing cars. I spent the rest of the past few years gaining experience driving a variety of cars from drift cars to singleseaters which culminated in getting to drive an actual Formula One car at the Circuit du Var in France with the AGS team, this was undoubtedly one of the greatest moments of my life and I look forward to my next opportunity in a car like that again.
Now I'm looking ahead and if you're reading this and have a seat available, a car that needs driving or you're looking for a promising young driver to sponsor then contact me down below, if it has 4 wheels I can drive it as fast as anyone.
