Olympic Gold Medalist Chloe Kim Takes Year Off Snowboarding To Attend Princeton

So happy for Chloe Kim as she has announced she will be sitting out the upcoming snowboard season to “be a kid for once.” Being a kid for the 19 year old Olympic Gold Medal winning snowboader means taking a well deserved year off competition to Princeton University:

“It was a really tough decision for me to make because I love snowboarding and I love competing, but I’ve been doing it for my whole life pretty much. I’ve been competing at a pro-level since I was 12 and I’m 19 now, so that’s a big chunk of my life.”

From the top of the podium to The Ivy League, this girl is dynamite! Good luck with school!
