I am a student at Loughborough College studying for the Motorsport UK Academy Enhanced Diploma in Sporting Excellence (DiSE) and I am looking for a career as a race car driver. This is a two-year course designed to support young, talented drivers through both a sporting and academic pathway.

I have 5 years of racing experience, 3 of those in cars, 2 in karting.  In 2019 at the age of 14, I competed against 28 race car drivers to win the Junior Saloon Car Championship Scholarship (JSCC), which gave me a fully funded season in circuit racing for the year.  I returned to the JSCC in 2020 and achieved a podium finish and numerous top 5 finishes.  I was selected to be a JSCC Fitness Coach and Examiner in 2020 and 2021.  In 2022 as well as being the Scholarship Fitness Coach putting the hopeful contestants through their paces, I stepped in to instruct at the JSCC test day at Croft circuit.  I am now an instructor for the JSCC Young Ones events at Stafford Driving Centre. I am a member of Orex Competition race team competing in my first season in senior racing with the Britcar Trophy.  I attend racing test days and simulator development days with iZone. I use my time to fundraise for worthy causes by activities such as skipping the length of three race circuits in full race gear for Movember and doing 100 squats a day for a month for the Teenage Cancer Trust. I became one of the EA Sporting Champions Ambassadors for 2020.  I also enjoy going to the gym and boxing training.
