I never imagined I would be writing a story like this.

On June 20, 2026, I was involved in a motorcycle accident that left me seriously injured and facing a long road to recovery.

I was taken by ambulance to the hospital, where I remain today. Yesterday, I underwent surgery on my left leg, and while the surgery was successful, I still have a long journey ahead of me.

My left leg was broken in multiple places, and I have significant bruising throughout my body. I am also dealing with pain in my neck and back as I continue to recover from the trauma of the accident.

Doctors have told me that my recovery will take time, including an estimated two to three months of rehabilitation before I can begin returning to normal activities.

I work as a truck driver and am a proud member of Teamsters Local 745. I have always taken pride in working hard, supporting my family, and providing for the people I love. Unfortunately, my injuries have made it impossible for me to work while I focus on healing.

The most important people in my life are my fiancée, Rose, and my two sons, Logan and Luke. They are my motivation every day and the reason I am determined to fight through this recovery and get back on my feet.

I also recently became a member of Phoenix MC DFW Area in February. The friendships and support I have found within the motorcycle community have already meant a great deal to me.

Anyone who knows me knows that asking for help is not something I do easily. Like many riders, I have always tried to handle things on my own. Today, however, I find myself needing support while I recover.

The funds raised will help with medical expenses and everyday living expenses while I am unable to work and focused on rehabilitation.

If you are able to donate, share my story, or keep me in your prayers, I would be deeply grateful.

Thank you for your kindness, support, and prayers during this difficult time.
