Fenlator grew up in Wayne, New Jersey and graduated from Wayne Valley High School.[2] She graduated from Rider University with a bachelor's degree in multimedia communications and advertising. At Rider, she competed on the track and field team, specializing in shot put, discus, and hammer. Upon graduating from Rider in 2007, Fenlator's track coach suggested she try a bobsled camp.[3]
After spending a few years as a brakeman, Fenlator decided to switch to the driver's seat. By her third season as a pilot, she had earned two World Cup medals – silver in Lake Placid, N.Y. and bronze in Igls, Austria.[4] She was named as one of three pilots of the U.S. Olympic Bobsled team for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.[5]
