In 2015, Beth launched Grace Autosport, a professional race team of women and an initiative to promote STEM education for girls as the ultimate example of applied science. Working tirelessly on the core mission to mentor kids about career paths in automotive and racing, Beth has broadened the mission of Grace Autosport across multiple racing series to reach girls around the world to connect them to education that leads to career paths.
