What are you passionate about?
I’ve always loved animals and I had several dogs
growing up. During my senior year in high school, I
started working at a pet care center and learned a lot
about caring for them. I’m passionate about working
with animals because so many pets end up abandoned
and I want to help them all find good homes.
What kind of dogs do you have now?
I have two boxers and a 6-pound Maltipoo—can you
guess who runs the pack?
How and when did you learn how to ride a
motorcycle?
My dad and I would ride dirt bikes on the weekends.
The weekend bonding experience eventually became
one of my biggest passions in life.
What kind of bike do you have?
I have a few of them—9 to be exact, I’m obsessed! I
own a variety, ranging from dirt bikes to street bikes—
with my favorite one being my Ducati 1299s.
Wow, how many years did it take you to amass a
collection of bikes like that? When did you purchase
your first bike and what was it?
My collection began after I started camming in 2016,
when I purchased my own motorcycle. My first street
bike was a Ninja 250; I only dropped it once because a
bug flew in my helmet.
Why is the Ducati 1299s the favorite of your
collection?
Mainly because it’s custom painted in my favorite
color. I love yellow and neons!
How often do you get to ride?
Not as often as I would like due to being busy with
work and active hobbies, but it is a stress reliever for
me so I make sure to make time at least once a week.
What it’s like taking care of guinea pigs? How would
you describe their personalities?
Let’s just say they just purchased a three-story condo,
haha. They’re a lot of work but I love them and they’re
”Camming has really
helped me blossom into my
adult self.”
