Biography

Racing out of Mexicali, BC, this dedicated desert racer has been a consistent presence in SCORE International competition, showcasing the determination and grit that defines Baja California's racing heritage. Competing primarily in the highly competitive Class 10 Limited division, he has taken on some of the sport's most challenging events, including the legendary Baja 500 and the technical Tijuana Desert Challenge.

His racing journey reflects the true spirit of SCORE desert racing, where mechanical reliability, navigation skills, and raw perseverance often matter more than outright speed. The punishing terrain of Baja California has tested his resolve across multiple seasons, from the high-speed sections of the San Felipe 250 to the technical challenges of the Desert Challenge's shorter but intense format.

Based in the border racing hub of Mexicali, he benefits from the region's deep motorsports culture and proximity to some of Mexico's most skilled fabricators and mechanics. His continued participation in SCORE events demonstrates the passion that drives desert racing's most dedicated competitors, those who return year after year to challenge themselves against Baja's unforgiving landscape and some of the world's toughest off-road competition.
