Betsy’s the Director of Marketing here at Speedway Motors. She’s the fearless leader of the 2019 rebrand, the mastermind behind the Bucket Beauties project, and loves a night at the track with a cold beer and plate of nachos. She’s a geek for market research, a rock-solid budget and building a kick-ass company culture. If she’s away from her desk, you can find her at home with her husband, Jarrett, and their 100-lb [totally obnoxious] dog, likely working on home renovation projects. Her dream car is a white ’53 Corvette, red interior. (But with only 200 left in existence, she’ll have to settle for drooling over one at the Museum of American Speed.)
