Nathan, well deserved Nathan Chen Day. Wishing you the best in your future. You have made an intelligent decision to return to Yale this year.

So proud to be from Salt Lake City...now living in Cleveland Ohio. Went to performance when here May 6th. So proud that my daughter, Melynda Byrnes, was his 1st Grade Teacher in Salt Lake City and now lives in Ohio. We were his biggest fans during performance in Cleveland!

Another Winter Olympics in the US would be so amazing. Considering it’s why Nathan started skating, it would definitely boost the sport in this country,
