A Life Built at full gallop.

Full bio

The story so far.

Zoey Schorsch is a multifaceted entrepreneur, athlete, and advocate whose life has been shaped by three passions: artistic expression, horses, and horsepower. Raised in New York City, she grew up immersed in equestrian culture through her mother's passion for riding, automotive life alongside her father, and a lifelong creative practice that has taken many forms, from dance and performance to modeling and fine arts.

She went on to attend St. George's School in Newport, Rhode Island, before earning her BFA in Musical Theater from Emerson College in Boston, where she formalized creation and advocacy as a core part of who she is. After graduating, she channeled all of it into founding an emerging artist studio and gallery in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, producing over 40 exhibitions, classes, and community events over three years, building a platform for underrepresented artists while developing her own expertise in creative direction, curation, and event production.

That work brought her into collaboration with Audrain, her family's Newport-based automotive museum and motorsport group, where she has helped bridge automotive heritage with contemporary creative vision as the Brand Development and Sponsorship Specialist.

This summer, Zoey will make history as the first American woman to compete in the Markel Magnolia Cup at the Qatar Goodwood Festival presented by Visit Qatar. A milestone that represents the convergence of her lifelong equestrian skill, her family's legacy in motorsport through Audrain Motorsport, and her commitment to showing up authentically as an openly gay woman and LGBTQ+ advocate in tradition-bound spaces. Having spent 1 year training in the UK with professional instruction, she brings the same philosophy to the saddle as she does to everything else: that true power, whether on four legs or four wheels, is something you work with, not against.
