One of my biggest goals in skiing has always been to inspire young girls,

especially young Asian-American girls

或者是在这项运动中还没有真正看到代表人物的那些年轻女孩。
And so that is really exciting to me because I've always had that as a goal.
这是很令我兴奋的事情，因为我一直把它当做我的一个目标。
But being able to see those records being broken

and see myself taking those steps towards it
自己再努力追赶那些记录，
is kind of a mind-bending moment for me.
这也挺考验我的意志的。
So it's happened really fast,

my sponsors, IWC, my family, my mom, my coaches who have supported me the whole time.

Right, sometimes you feel like, as a young person, you feel like,

Oh, I have to wait until I'm older before I can really make change

才能真正做一些对世界重要和有影响力的事情。
But really, I think it's important to be a young person
但实际上，我认为作为一个年轻人，
and to show that age doesn't dictate capability

and that experience teaches more than anything else.

And so, yeah, I think that is my biggest goal,

with my mom and my grandma, who are both incredibly empowered women

就这方面来说，
that I didn't really see on TV or in this sport or other extreme sports, for that matter.

And so that when people think of free skiing,

and has this genuine passion for the sport.

And that was probably my biggest goal.

because there were only a handful of them.

There were probably 20 or 30 people in the whole country

And now, you know, I could never count.

I show up to a resort

and there are just lines everywhere

and people are with their families and their friends,

And so it's really exploding.

So I'm really glad to have even made a small impact in that.
