The notable artistic gymnast, Jordan Chiles, has recently shared her thoughts on why she wants to be seen beyond her gymnastics career. The two-time Olympic medalist further reflected on showcasing her personality and connecting with individuals through her social media channels.

Jordan Chiles rose to prominence by becoming the first-ever women's all-around Winter Cup champion. She further solidified her place by coming second in the U.S. Classic competition behind legendary artistic gymnast Simone Biles. Chiles then competed in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and clinched a silver medal in the team event. At the 2024 Paris Olympics, she won a gold medal with 'Golden Girls' comprising Biles, Jade Carey, Suni Lee, and Hezly Rivera.

The three-time World Championship medalist recently attended the Variety Sports Culture Happy Hour discussion panel, which also featured Olympian Tara Davis-Woodhall, along with other individuals at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity in France. Chiles shared her thoughts on how she uses social media to connect with her audience beyond her sports career. She shared via a Variety.com:

“You go on my social media, you’re gonna know I’m a dog mom. You’re gonna know that I love fashion. I don’t want you just to think of me as Jordan Chiles, a two-time Olympian who did this, that and the other in gymnastics. I would like for you to understand that I like watching other sports. I would like for you to understand that Uber Eats is literally the only app I have on my phone.”

Apart from her World Championship feats, Chiles has captured three medals at the Pan American Games and four medals in the Pacific Rim Championships.
