Interview with Professional Race Car Driver Amber Balcaen | Student Influencers EP 04

On this episode of Student Influencers, we were blown away by Amber Balcaen’s dedication and tenacity as she carves out a space for herself in the male-dominated occupation of professional racing. Amber is a third-generation race car driver from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Amidst the trials of struggling to attain sponsorship and navigating the gendered implications of participating in the sport, Amber has become one of motorsport’s largest female influencers with an aim to inspire and motivate others to pursue their dreams, break stereotypes, and have a positive impact on society.
