I am a mechanic/ tire girl for the #7 at Tommy Baldwin Racing and rear tire changer in all 3 NASCAR series. I moved from California to North Carolina in 2007 just 3 months after turning 18 to pursue my dream to work in NASCAR. After trying to get my foot in the door unsuccessfully I worked at several oil change places and a dealership before I tried to pursue my dream to get into racing again. I started my racing career in 2012 with JJCR as an intern and quickly worked my way to being a full time employee in the shop and at track. I started changing rear tires for JJCR at the fall Kentucky truck race. I left JJCR in August of 2013 after budget cuts and did freelance work the rest of the season with different teams in both truck and nationwide. I also spend several days a week at Xcalibur pit school to improve my over the wall speed and accuracy. In the 2014 season I started the year out as road crew and over the wall for Derrike Cope in the Nationwide series where I was introduced to Jay Robinson who is the owner of the #66 cup car. After working with Jay over the wall for the first couple races I was asked to pit for his cup team in Bristol. That race was the first cup race I went over the wall to change tires. Since then I have gone over the wall as a rear changer in over 52 races in the 2014 season between the 3 series. My best finishes are: 19th in cup with Michael Waltrip in 2014, 13th in nationwide with Derrike Cope in 2014, and 13th in trucks with Bryan Silas in 2013.
