I am an avid motorsport fan and graphic designer. I've been following NASCAR for around 5 to 6 years and have become increasingly involved with the sport. I have been doing freelance design work, almost all of which being motorsport or NASCAR related, for the past 5 years.[1]
I've been a Christian for my entire life.
I did acting from 2022 to 2024, peaking in June 2024 when I participated in two Christian short films featuring Dean Cain. I quit shortly after those two short films to pursue other activities, namely kart racing.
Racing Career
Simulation
Disclaimer: The following information contains some real-life teams, series, tracks, and events. These are all simulated recreations and are not real. This information is only present for archival purposes.
I've actively participated in various sim racing communities on Roblox since 2019. I plan on making the switch to iRacing in 2025, likely ending my career on Roblox.
Starting in late 2019, I participated in two low-tier leagues, bouncing around between rides with no full-time seat chosen. In January 2021, I would grab my first win in a brick league race at the Australian Grand Prix driving the #18 car. I wouldn't return to blocks until 2024 where I would participate in MRL, also driving the #18, where I grabbed my second ever block win at Talladega.
Starting in 2021, I joined the RSCRA driving Modifieds independently. I ended up collecting 1 top 5 and 5 top 10s, putting me 10th in the series standings. The following season I moved up to the ARCA series driving the 3 car for Richard Childress Racing. After a 6th place finish at Daytona, I would drive 7 consecutive top 5s, putting me in the championship lead, 19 points ahead of 2nd place, with 4 races remaining. The league would preemptively shut down following the next race at Michigan, which I was unable to attend. I would end up winning the series championship despite not winning a race.
In 2024, the league was brought back and rebranded. I returned to the series driving for my own team, BGX Racing. I would dominate my return at Phoenix and win after holding off a bump-and-run attempt on the final lap, earning me my only win in the series. I departed from the league 5 races later.
In January 2023, I participated in ASCA, the largest NASCAR sim racing server on Roblox at the time. After a subpar season, I would finish 17th in the Nationals standings, earning 2 top 5s and 5 top 10s, and 13th in the truck series standings, earning 1 top 5 and 4 top 10s. My performance in the league peaked in the truck series race at Dover. I would win my heat race, placing me 4th in qualifying, the highest position I had received since my debut race in the Nationals series at Indianapolis, where I qualified 6th. After a wreck-filled race, the stars would align for a 3rd place finish, trailing the eventual series championship runner-up and a veteran Cup driver. The league would shift to iRacing the following season.
In May 2024, I joined PSCC, the successor to ASCA. I would bounce around rides in all series before signing full-time in the ARCA series with Joe Gibbs Racing with plans to move up to the Xfinity series the following season, also driving for JGR in the #18.
Midseason, the series host announced that due to decline in race quality, the series might have a chance of ending early. This led to me and my team owner agreeing to move me up to the Xfinity series full time a season early, driving the #18, additionally set on the same seat for the next year. Following the race at Watkins Glen, the series was confirmed to end after next week's race, Indianapolis. This defaulted me to a 13th place points finish.
Following two races in the #18, the league ended abruptly after the owner decided that he didn't want to continue hosting the league. This defaulted me to a 24th place points finish, with 2 top 10s and 2 DNQs.
In November 2024, I joined VRA to compete in the 2025 VRA World Cup and following licensed events. I drove the No. 4 car representing the state of Texas. At the same time, I joined the VizTa Cup Series, a newly founded league with the largest payouts of any league that offered them. I fielded 3 cars under the BGX Racing name, the #18, #44, and #46, signing ASCA Nationals drivers FlxyAway and Zaydencore, respectively.

Karting
In 2022, I started actively participating in the K1 Speed Teen Championship in Richardson, Texas. I raced nearly full time from December 2022 to September 2024, scoring one 3rd-place finish in June 2024. Following a poor result in September 2024, I stepped away from the league to pursue other racing activities.
