I’m often told that I eat, sleep and breathe motorsport. All my life, I’ve had a very strong fascination with cars, Formula One, and the history behind drivers attempting to go as fast as they possibly can around a track.

Unlike most kids, I started my early years wrestling a sim rig and force-feedback steering wheel, before immersing myself in competitive indoor karting, then moving on to junior outdoor karting and eventually to Seniors, driving a 30 bhp TaG 125 unrestricted go-kart.

This year, we’re levelling up. At 16 years of age, I’ll be the youngest driver in the 2025 Australian Driver’s Championship, having been blessed with the opportunity to drive a Hyper Racer X1.

I can’t predict how the season will pan out, but I can guarantee that it will be an amazing ride.
