Marie Lapointe grew up in a French-Canadian family lost in the anglophone suburbia of Montreal's West Island. Suburbia was a dead end for Marie which she fled on the first opportunity when she turned 15. Little did she know this was to be a major gateway in her development.
Her new world offered festivals, events, arts, theater and music. And she thrived as she was voted most likely to run away and join the circus...
Marie can be found wherever the fun is, and that's no mere coincidence. Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows seem to follow her every place she goes. Whether it's time to work or play, Marie is a blast to be around. Perhaps more importantly, no matter what the job, this lass knows how to get it done.
If you want to talk about someone who learns quickly, Marie went from having never heard of sprint car racing to building and maintaining the brutish beasts in less than six months time. You want to talk about handling on the job pressure? Try changing an engine in ten minutes with thousands of dollars at stake. Within a year, she was fielding offers to join forces with some of the biggest names in the sport. Loyalist that she is, she politely declined.
Join her as she now spreads her wings in the coolest city in the world: San Diego!
