Snowboarding champion!
Chloe Kim is an American snowboarder. She was born in Long Beach, California, on 23 April 2000. She became
famous when she won an Olympic gold medal in snowboarding at the age of just seventeen. Chloe’s parents
have always supported her so that she could achieve her goals. Her father started her training when she was
just four years old, and two years later she was already competing as part of ‘Team Mountain High’ in
California. In 2013, the US Snowboarding Team saw how talented Chloe was, so they asked her to become a
member. As part of the US team, Chloe won a number of competitions and was enthusiastic about taking part
in the Winter X-Games in 2014 and the Winter Olympics.
Chloe Kim is popular, with almost one million followers on Instagram and Twitter, and has appeared in many
magazine articles. She also appeared on a special edition box of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes, which became
the fastest-selling cereal box in the company’s history. In 2019, Chloe started studying science at Princeton
University. Being famous means that people recognise her a lot. She finds it hard to stay calm and deal
with the attention.
So what is in Chloe’s future? Well, she plans to start training for the next Winter Olympics. She needs
to continue to be hard-working and positive if she wants to be successful in both her studies and her athletic
