Our fifth annual Science Fair brought together 150+ Gurus for a celebration of curiosity and collaboration. From experiments and breakthroughs to lessons learned along the way, the day was a reminder that the best innovation happens when we share what we’re building and learn from one another. 🧪🚗🚙 #GreatToBeAGuru Krista Photography

It was another form of transportation, so to speak, that eventually led Jess Cook of CarGurus into the car business. Horseback riding. "I spent a lot of time riding on trails when I was younger, and that’s where I met friends who rode dirt bikes," said Cook, one of Auto Remarketing's Women in Retail honorees. "We’d even race my horse against their bikes, which, looking back, was probably the beginning of my obsession with anything fast and loud. "Over time, horses turned into dirt bikes, and then dirt bikes turned into cars. I became fascinated with how things worked under the hood. I’ve rebuilt motors in a few of my own cars, spent years going to car shows, and always loved being around car culture," she said. "What I enjoy most about the industry, though, is the people. Car people — whether they work in this industry or just appreciate it on their own time — are unlike anyone else. Shared hobbies somehow turn into lifelong friendships really quickly in this world."
