Landauer began racing go-karts at age 10, and found success with many wins and podiums.  At age 13, Landauer moved to racing cars and the following year became the first female champion of a Skip Barber Racing Series, scoring 12 wins.  After racing in Formula BMW USA single-seaters, she gained her first oval-racing experience in Ford Focus Midgets. Landauer then transitioned to late model stock cars, but ran into funding issues.  While in college, she competed part-time in late models and Legends cars.  Landauer graduated from Manhattan's Stuyvesant High School in 2010.  In 2014, she attained a bachelor's degree in science, technology, and society from Stanford University. Having caught the attention of owner Bill McAnally in 2009, Landauer competed for his Bill McAnally Racing team in select Late Model races that year, running in the Whelen All-American Series Late Model division at All American Speedway.  Landauer first gained national exposure as a contestant on the twenty-sixth season of Survivor (2013), reaching Day 19 before she was voted out (the eighth contestant to be eliminated).  In 2015 at the Motor Mile Speedway, Landauer competed for Lee Pulliam Performance, winning the

All-American Series-sanctioned Limited Late Model track championship, the first female track champion in that division, and the first female track champion since Sheryl Carls in 2011.  For 2016, Landauer was selected by McAnally and his business partner, record executive and former Lieutenant Governor of California Mike Curb, to drive for a fourth team in the K&N Pro Series West.  Behind the wheel of the #54 Toyota Camry, she finished eighth in her debut at Irwindale Speedway, going on to record seven Top 5 finishes and 13 Top 10s in 14 races, for which she was honored with the 2016 Driver Achievement Award and named the series' Top Breakthrough Driver.  She had a season's best finish of second at Meridan ID where she was bested by Todd Gilliland.  In 2017, she was named to Forbes magazine's 30 Under 30 list for sports.  In 2018, Landauer secured three races with CBRT in the NASCAR Pinty's Series and an additional six in 2019.  Her best finish was tenth at Bowmanville Ontario.  In 2020, Landauer joined PK Carsport for a full-time NASCAR Whelen Euro Series EuroNASCAR 2 campaign with a best finish of fifth.  In 2022, Landauer raced in the Xfinity Series for Alpha Prime Racing starting with the July 16th race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.  Landauer then raced on October 22nd at Homestead Miami Speedway with the
