I grew up around so many different cultures and I was almost spoiled in a sense... I took it for granted... Now that I’m not living there, I’m like, 'Dang, I took it for granted.'"[5]
When she was nine years old, Breidinger started racinggo-karts when her father took her and her twin sister to a go-kart school after he saw a newspaper advertisement for the school.[6] After the duo attended several lessons, he bought the two go-karts for them to race.[4] In an interview withAutoweek, she stated that her introduction to racing brought her a "sense of independence" that she wanted as a child.[7][8] She continued racing go-karts until 2014.
