Biography

I am Alaska born and raised and have been running and racing dogs 48 years in this great state. At the age of six, watching my Dad win the Iditarod engraved into me what I knew I wanted to do someday! Although a win has not happened yet, crossing under the arch in Nome has always been special, and near and dear to me ! I have always said I will win the Iditarod one year. Maybe I will and maybe I won’t but one thing’s for certain, as long as my health allows me to be in the greatest event on earth I will not stop trying!!! This will be my 10th Iditarod and hopefully will be the most memorable one yet. See y’all in Nome!!!
