Missed Nathan's artristry on ice. He was the best not just jumps but also amazing dancing skills.

Nathan will be pursuing a post-baccalaureate pre-med program at Goucher College outside of Baltimore. Is Johns Hopkins Medical School in his future?

Nathan will be pursing a post-baccalaureate pre-med program at Goucher College outside of Baltimore.

This news has since been confirmed in the latest issue of SKATING magazine, IIRC.

Off-topic, sort of - Joonsoo Kim is in his first year of medical school at Johns Hopkins and can be seen briefly in this ISU video :

Goucher and Bryn Mawr have two of the top post-bac pre-med programs available. I don't imagine that Goucher's location has any influence on JHU's med school admission decisions, but it might well influence students in the post-bac program to either apply or not apply based on whether they like the med school option at JHU.

An encounter yesterday (she is a NYC-based composer & pianist who has figure skating connections): https://twitter.com/kellymoran/status/1786534410512208075

I just met Olympic Champion @nathanwchen on the street in NYC! I have watched him skate for so many years and cried when he won the Olympics! What a surreal moment to spot him in public - I turned into a rambling fangirl with zero chill.
My life is now complete!

I see fans in Asia are wishing a Happy 25th Birthday (May 5) to Nathan.
