Some of the interviews I have gotten with NASCAR Drivers or Personnel of the sport. Along with photo and video content captured during my time at the tracks as a NASCAR Content Creator & journalist.
WHY NASCAR?
Growing up on Long Island there was not much space to build my own dirt track and go racing in the backyard. Luckily, when I was younger my Father would take me to Riverhead Raceway and we would watch the races there together. Amazed at the adrenaline rush of the fast moving cars and the smell of burnt rubber I knew I wanted to be a NASCAR driver someday. Well, as I get older that dream gets further and further every year. Instead of becoming a driver I am now focused on covering them. I am driven to work for a major sports entertainment company and continue to create NASCAR content for them, never letting my dreams die and following along with the sport I know and love.
