How did Jazmine become involved in the sport of bobsled? As a multi-record holder and top performer in track and field at Rider University where her coach encouraged her to try a bobsled camp after graduation. She made the team and began her 10+ year career in September 2007. Fenlator-Victorian has her BA in multi-media design/ minor in Advertising and 2 Master’s degrees (MS and MBA).  She is also NASM certified, Track and Field Level 1 certified, and holds an honorary doctorate from Rider University for her distinguished accomplishments over the years.  When not in a bobsled, she enjoys photography, cooking, coaching, surfing, spending time with family, travelling as well as being dedicated to bringing more diversity to winter sports for young girls and urban youth.
