Michelle Kwan is known as the most decorated figure skater in US history, with nine US championships, five world championships, and two Olympic medals (silver and bronze) to her name. Her style on the ice is artistic, emotive, and nothing short of enchanting, and her success made her a beloved icon for generations of fans. Now, at 39, Michelle might be retired from skating, but she's currently living her best life and documenting it on Instagram. She's a political strategist who worked on Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and is now part of Joe Biden's 2020 team. She still skates, often at her family's rink in Artesia, CA. And she has a freaking adorable dog who shows up all the time.
