Personal Notes:

My cycling career began on the velodrome when I was about 8 years old. My dad got my siblings and I into the beginner program there. Through the years, I've developed a passion for the sport and it's become sort of an addiction. My favorite cyclist in the world is my brother. He's taught me much of what I know about cycling and he has enlightened me of the unlimited possiblities that come out of hard work. My father, however, has been my biggest influence in cycling by being my coach, my riding buddy, my nutritionist, and my mentor.

Kenda will be my first time having team mates to work with on the road. I look forward to those opportunities and more in 2010! My goals for 2010 are Collegiate Track Nationals and to take a gold medal at Jr Track Nationals.

When I'm not riding, I enjoy listening to music, going to Lake Michigan with my friends, baking, and playing tennis.
