Biography
Started: He took up cycling at age 12. He got involved in Para cycling after sustaining a brachial plexus injury in 2019. (teamusa.com, 01 Nov 2023)
Reason: "When I was a kid one of my primary objectives in the sport [non-Para cycling] was to put a Team USA jersey on and race in an international race, whether it be a world championships or something like that. [After being injured in 2019] I was looking for something to get me through this really hard time and I thought, 'Maybe there would be a space for me in this Para cycling community'. Para [cycling] did a lot for me. It kept me motivated when I was trying to figure out if I would ever move my arm again. It gave me a goal. It helped fulfil a childhood dream."
