Italian born Stefy Bau was one of the fastest women motocross racers in the world before she retired in 2005.  Her bio includes a list of being the first woman to achieve a number of accolades in the sport.  Stefy won three world championships, holds two WMX (USA) championships, and a title from the prestigious AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship at Loretta Lynn’s. In addition, she has won seven Italian Championships. She earned an AMA Pro Racing license and signed up for several Lucas Oil Pro Motocross and Monster Energy Supercross events, and has also raced the FIM Motocross World Championship events against the men. During her career, Stefy wasn’t afraid to take chances or to challenge herself against the top racers in the world. Alas a devastating injury to both ankles in 2005, abruptly ended her racing career.  Always looking for a new challenge she then became the General Manager of the newly established FIM International Motorcycle Federation’s Women's World Motocross Championship and has also served as CEO of the Italian motorcycle manufacturing company Fantic Bikes USA.  Stefy is a co-founder of Init ESports which produces online competitions and real life tournaments, maximizing the esports audience reach across multiple sports and platforms. Init Esports is owned and operated by three women.
