In the NASCAR Xfinity Series, where he has spent most of his career since 2022, he has taken two top-three finishes from 130 starts, predominantly on oval tracks. His other national starts, two in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2024 and two in the Truck Series across five seasons, have yielded no podiums.
