Lanie hails from the small town of Jackson, Georgia, where her Christian faith and strong family values form the foundation of her life. From an early age, she developed a passion for racing, but it is her faith that truly drives her both on and off the track. To Lanie, racing is more than speed or competition—it is an opportunity to glorify God, inspire others, and pursue excellence with purpose.
Outside of racing, Lanie is deeply committed to giving back to her community and being a positive role model for the next generation. She enjoys connecting with fans, supporting youth-focused initiatives, and using her platform to encourage confidence, perseverance, and strong values in others. Whether through community appearances or mentorship opportunities, Lanie strives to make a meaningful impact beyond the racetrack.
She also finds fulfillment in sharing her love for racing by coaching young drivers at the Cookout Summer Shootout at Charlotte Motor Speedway, helping foster growth, confidence, and a supportive racing environment. As a 19-year-old competitor, Lanie remains focused on developing her skills, strengthening her mindset, and continuing to grow both personally and professionally in the sport she loves.
For Lanie, faith is not just a belief but a guiding principle. Whether she is behind the wheel or engaging with her community, she approaches each day with intention and gratitude. Her journey reflects dedication, humility, and a genuine desire to make a positive difference—one lap, one moment, and one opportunity at a time.
