Under-23 Cyclist racing for Kelly Benefits Cycling

I’m a cyclist racing for the Kelly Benefits Cycling U23 Development team attending the University of Colorado in Boulder. I grew up in Minnesota, where my passion for bike racing began. I have always found beauty in bicycles, the stories they tell, and the places they take you. I love the vast technical and tactical nuances of bike racing and hope to consider myself a student of the sport forever. 

The Espoir Reports

Follow along with my blog as my teammates and I tackle races nationwide and abroad throughout the season! I will keep you updated with reports after each of the season's major races.

I have raced on the road since I was 9 years old, and I have grown a deep passion for the sport and wish to continue my pursuit of the highest level. I have competed in 5 Cyclocross and 4 Road National Championships, as well as 10 international stage races during my years as a junior and U23. I spent this past season competing in the biggest pro/1 races in the country, learning how to bounce back from mental and physical setbacks and how to support, shelter, and position team leaders. I enjoy a fast and aggressive style of racing. I love difficult races with punchy climbing and technical aspects, but I am also a savvy crit racer and enjoy technical criteriums with many corners. During my time in Spain in 2021, I raced for two months for Carmago’s Spanish junior team, racing in 5 international stage races. The European racing style suits me well, with lots of climbing and fast, aggressive racing. Throughout my time in Europe, I raced competitively and aggressively, racing at the front of each race and spending lots of time getting into strong breakaway moves.
