Jordan Chiles is currently living her dream as the winner of a silver medal at the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games! Best known as half of the dynamic duo, “Biles and Chiles,” Jordan knew early on in life that gymnastics would be in her future, especially after qualifying for the Junior Olympic Nationals at just 10 years old. She won the American Classic at her first elite meet in 2013 and proceeded to win team gold and vault silver at her first international competition in Jesolo, Italy the following year. Soon after, she shocked the gymnastics world by winning the all-around title in the Junior division of the U.S. Classic. A nine-time National Team member, Jordan won over the hearts of little girls and Comic-Con fans everywhere when she wore a Wonder Woman Leo to the US Championships in 2018. When not training in the gym, the soon-to-be UCLA freshman enjoys spending time with her family, shopping, collecting sneakers, and creating new designs for her business and clothing line.
Jordan speaks out in a transparent interview on mental health and dishes on her bond with Olympian great Simone Biles. Tune in for an interview which will leave your heart wanting more!
