5 Questions We Asked and She Answered:
1. How did you develop a passion for cars and/or motorsports?
My sister and I grew up on the racetrack because our family was obsessed with cars and motorsport. Our parents founded car clubs to share their love for racing and create a community around it. We went along every weekend, were always the youngest girls at the track, and seeing our mom as one of the only female drivers really inspired us.
2. What advice do you have for people who want to break into the motorsports and auto industry?
As a woman, you might face doubt or pushback, but don’t let it stop you. Surround yourself with people who believe in you. Your voice matters, your ideas count, and your perspective is powerful. Stay confident, stay passionate, because you absolutely belong here.
3. If you could drive any car, what would it be and why?
Hands down, the Ferrari F40. It’s an absolute legend-I’m obsessed with its timeless vintage aesthetic, and it’s the kind of car that will always be cool.
4. If you could attend any car/motorsports event in the world, which would you choose? Why?
The Monaco Grand Prix. It’s iconic, glamorous, and full of energy. I love how close you are to the action, the luxury, and the electric atmosphere. Plus, the parties and vibe around the race make it such a bucket-list experience for any F1 fan.
5. What’s the most exciting car event/race you’ve ever attended?
The 2023 Montreal Grand Prix. I got to spend the weekend in the paddock, meet Lando Norris, and even watch a practice session from the pit wall. Seeing the teams in action up close was surreal-truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience I’ll always be grateful for.
