Jade Carey previously talked about her brief but stellar gymnastics season this year. In her conversation with the ESPN channel, the 25-year-old gymnast mentioned,

"This year I haven't had the Olympics in the back of my mind 24-7. I've just been able to think about and enjoy the whole process and the season. I was able to give more to college gymnastics and to my teammates than I've ever been able to do before. I think that's really what's ultimately led me to where I am this year and allowed me to have a lot of fun."

Jade Carey represented the Oregon State Beavers from 2021 to 2025. The Olympic champion gymnast was to originally make her collegiate debut in 2018, but ultimately delayed it till 2021.

Jade Carey previously represented the USA at the Paris Olympics held last year. She added another gold medal to her collection when she contributed to Team USA's win in the women's team all-around. Jade Carey also won an individual bronze medal in the women's vault event, where her teammate Simone Biles won the gold medal.
