Meet The Girls
Sheree Woodington-
Co-Founder, journalist. Sheree is one of the original founders of Girls Garage.com. She combined her interest in computers with her love of motorsports and co-designed Girls Garage.com. Sheree has helped maintain the technical responsibilities of the website and managed to fit in the ownership/management of a salon and “Mommy” duties to her two year old son J. J. Sheree is known for her compassionate spirit, infectious laugh and uncanny ability to mess up even the most mundane sayings. Girls Garage without Sheree would be like cornflakes without the milk, or as Sheree would say, like the Frosted Flakes without the bowl.
Racing Experience: Sheree was the passenger in an Enduro race at Mountain Speedway. It was tough getting her in the car but once she got a taste of it, she's never been the same. She has also taken laps at Monster Racing at Dover International Speedway.
Arianne Hegeman-
Co-Founder, Journalist, Content Manager, Event Coordinator. Arianne graduated from Wilmington College in 1996, with a degree in Behavioral Science. She has been married for 11 years and has a stepson and a ten-year old daughter. Her daughter has inherited her affection for motorsports and is Denny Hamlin’s biggest fan. Despite being a blonde, Arianne is the brains behind everything. If an answer is needed, everyone goes to her. But do not look to her for directions during a road trip, she refuses to stop and ask for help. Arianne's day job is in the social service field as the Program Director at a Big Brothers Big Sisters agency. Most people know her to be very organized, except for the time she forgot a copy of the book "The Women's Guide to NASCAR's 2005 Season", which she co-authored with Sheree. It was a vital prop for the CBS television promo that kicked off the book tour.
Racing Experience: Arianne also participated in Moster Racing at Dover International Speedway but her biggest thrill was being able to drive a stock car around Pocono Raceway with Stock Car Racing Experience. She got off to a slow start but eventually pulled off a top speed of 155mph. Her passion for the sport was enhanced by the experience and now she can't wait to do it again.
Maryann Toomey-Operations manager, Journalist. Maryann is one of the newest members of Girls Garage.com. She is the mother of two children and has been married for 33 years. “Mare” takes a lot of heat for being the world’s last Rick Mast fan, which is a true testament to her loyalty and unwavering belief in others. Maryann is a neat-freak who likes to keep her books as clean as her curtains. She once washed a set of curtains so much that holes appeared in the fabric and she was forced to retire the set. Since Maryann became a part of the GG family, we have smiled a lot more and enjoyed thousands of her famous peanut butter cookies and snickerdoodles. Maryann works for her local public school system and also runs an after-school care program. In her spare time, she likes to collect jars of Duke's Mayonnaise.
Racing Experience: Maryann is known to use excessive speed when traveling home from race tracks. Just put on "Dirty Vegas" and watch her go.
Kimberly Carlino-
Public Relations Specialist, Journalist, Editor. Kimberly is otherwise known as “Kimmie”. Kimmie graduated from William Paterson University in 1993 with a degree in Communications. She heads up the public relations department of Girls Garage.com. When the group is asked, “What is Girls Garage?” we all look for Kimmie who can describe all that we do in about three sentences. It is a routine she can recite in her sleep. She is a lyrical genius and the keeper of all useless knowledge. Kimmie and her cat Boo, reside in Huntersville, NC. When she’s not watching Star Trek or British Comedy, Kimmie can be found at Allstate Insurance; making everyone’s insurance dreams come true. Kimmie can magically relate to anyone, from anywhere, at anytime; a skill that comes in handy when she has locked you out of the house at 3am in Dover. She may not be the most organized person on the planet but she is the most grammatically correct. You can not miss her when she is at the track…she is the one with the bubble goggles.
Racing Experience: Kimmie once received a speeding ticket on I-95 for going 80 in a 55. Ouch! She's a devil when listening to public radio.
