Workman began karting in 2017, competing until 2019.[1] Following that, Workman was a finalist of the Spec MX-5 Challenge Shootout in 2020 before winning it the next year.[2][3] In 2022, Workman made his single-seater debut in the Lucas Oil Formula Car Race Series, in which he finished third in points, as well as racing in the Spec MX-5 Challenge Series and being nominated as a finalist for the Mazda MX-5 Cup shootout.[4] The following year, Workman primarily raced in the Spec MX-5 Challenge Series, and was nominated as a finalist for the 2024 IMSA Diverse Driver Development Scholarship,[5] as well as winning the Mazda MX-5 Cup Shootout.[6]

Joining BSI Racing as he made the step-up to the Mazda MX-5 Cup for 2024, Workman scored wins at Sebring and Mosport, as well as a second-place finish at VIR en route to a sixth-place points finish.[7][8] In parallel, Workman raced in the Toyota GR Cup North America for Copeland Motorsports, as part of Toyota Racing Development's Driver Development program,[9] scoring 11 podiums to end the year third in the overall standings and as the highest-finishing rookie.[10] During 2024, Workman was also named as a finalist for the 2025–26 IMSA Diverse Driver Development Scholarship and finished second in the non-championship Martinsville race of the Mazda MX-5 Cup.[11][12]

The following year, Workman remained with BSI Racing for a dual campaign in both the Mazda MX-5 Cup and the Toyota GR Cup North America,[13] as he continued to be part of Toyota Driver Development's roster.[14] In the former, Workman scored a best result of second at Barber as well as three third-place finishes to end the season 10th in points;[15] whereas in the latter, Workman won both races at Sebring and Barber,[16] as well as further wins at VIR and Indianapolis to secure the title at season's end.[17] During 2025, Workman was also nominated as a finalist for the 2026–27 IMSA Diverse Driver Development Scholarship and finished second at the non-championship Martinsville race of the Mazda MX-5 Cup, 0.003 seconds behind Jeremy Fletcher.[18][19]
