In her driving adventures, Emily has earned numerous podium finishes and wins including the Baja 1000 and she is the first woman to solo the longest off-road race in the U.S. She has coached over 4,000 people and produced over 100 experiential automotive events. Emily is a recipient of the Women’s Automotive Alliance International “Spirit of Leadership Award” and her mantra is “to finish first, you must first finish”.
