Dudek, from Hales Corners, Wisconsin, is a fourth-generation Polish American.[2] Dudek attended Divine Savior Holy Angels High School for three and a half years.[3] Dudek qualified for her first World Cup team while still a high school student and finished her high school education through online correspondence course while training in Salt Lake City. As a younger skater, Dudek originally trained in both long track and short track speed skating before choosing to specialize in short track.[3] In late 2014, Dudek competed in the 26th season of the reality show The Amazing Race, which began airing on February 25, 2015, while despite performing well throughout the race, their season has come to an end in Leg 8, where a poor performance in the leg and a U-Turn from Laura & Tyler sent them home in 6th place.
