About Kyle Ocker		Email

Kyle Ocker is a southeastern Iowa native that is just trying to get a start in the vast career of journalism, spending the majority of his time covering motorsports and keeping caught up in school.

Ocker began pursuing his dreams in the fall of 2007 when he opened his website, named NASCAR FanZone at the time, for business. As with any website launch, business was slow at first. However, by January 2008 he had made contacts with many in the NASCAR world. By January 2009, he hit another milestone of more then 1,000 unique visits per day, on average.

He is one of two featured writers at the NASCAR section of www.fanzonesports.net. On March 8, 2009, Ocker began writing for SpeedwayMedia.
