A veteran of seven seasons on the WPCA Pro Tour, Josh will look to a new challenge in 2026 as he transitions to the CPCA circuit. He made an immediate impression early in his WPCA career, earning Top Rookie Driver honours in 2018. One year later, he captured both the Herman Flad Memorial Award as the association’s Most Improved Driver and the Ken Borek Memorial Award as the Most Sportsmanlike Driver at the Battle of the North.
The 2025 season saw Josh record three top-ten runs, highlighted by a fifth-place run at the Ponoka Stampede.
Josh was introduced to chuckwagon racing by the Bensmiller family and began his career as a barn hand for Chance Bensmiller on the WPCA Pro Tour in 2008. By 2013, he had moved into the outriding ranks with Bensmiller after the outfit transitioned to the CPCA circuit.
Away from the track, Josh works as a lineman with ATCO Electric and enjoys hockey and baseball. He and his wife Alissa have three daughters — Brooklynn, Layla, and Everly — and make their home in Dewberry, Alberta.
