"Crossing The Finish Line: Women In NASCAR" is the topic for the Chandler Chamber of Commerce's first Women In Leadership meeting of 2025.

Latasha Causey, president of NASCAR’s Phoenix Raceway, will share her journey in the sports industry at a Tuesday, Jan. 21 luncheon, according to a news release.

The cost to attend the luncheon is $25 for Chandler Chamber members, $35 for non-members.

With a career marked by "literal drive and determination," according to the release, Causey is a founding member of the NASCAR Accelerators host committee.

She's also the first female African-American track president in NASCAR history.

Causey's perspective is somewhat unique. She grew up in the West Valley before embarking on a business career.

Other racing-industry panelists will be announced at a later date.

The Jan. 21 event is set to be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at SoHo 63, 63 E. Boston Street, downtown Chandler.
