If you've been glued to your computer streaming the gymnastics competition at the Summer 2016 Olympics happening in Rio de Janeiro [1], then you already know one thing about Brazilian gymnast Flávia Saraiva: She's a powerhouse that might end up with a medal around her neck at the beam event.

The 16-year-old Rio-born athlete's routine at the qualification event [2] on Aug. 7 earned her the third highest score, so before she attempts to repeat that and stand on that podium on Aug. 15, learn everything you need to know about her.

1. Like Team USA's Laurie Hernandez [3], she's only 16 years old. She was born in Rio de Janeiro on Sept. 30, 1999.
2. She's 4'4" and weighs just 68 pounds [4], which makes all other petite gymnasts look tall in comparison.
3. She started gymnastics when she was 9 years old at a free sports center in Rio.
4. Her nickname is "Flavinha" or "little Flavia."
5. She lives just a few blocks away from the stadium where the gymnastics competitions are taking place.
6. She's big on Instagram [5] with 238K followers and growing, but also loves Snapchat. Follow her at Flaviagym.
7. In 2014, she got medals in the beam, floor, and all-around events at the Youth Summer Olympics in Nanjing, China.
8. Though her best event is normally floor, she has a highest chance of getting a medal in the beam event due to the higher difficulty of her routine.
9. Like a typical 16-year-old, her hobbies [6] include going to the movies and shopping.
10. She names Team USA's Simone Biles as one of her idols [7] — and now she might be standing next to her on the podium.
11. Her favorite dish is bobó de camarão [8], a shrimp and coconut milk stew.
12. If she wasn't a gymnast, she says she would be a doctor [9].
13. Her favorite mantra is nunca desista [10] or never give up.
