Snapshot: I am a Canadian whose heart is in racing. I started competing when I was 14 in karting. Academics has been a counterpart to most of my racing career. In 2015, I graduated with a B.Sc in Engineering Physics from Queen’s University. I have a passion for science and technology and am a strong supporter of STEM education and initiatives. I find the technical side of racing fascinating. Although I live in Indianapolis, I also enjoy spending time at home in Canada with friends and family.

Racing goal: To climb the ranks of the Mazda Road to Indy, compete in the Verizon IndyCar Series and win the Indy 500

Racing hero: Kimi Räikkönen
