Jade Carey recounted her experience at the Paris Olympics, including being part of the US women's gymnastics team. In her interview with Olympics.com, the gymnast remarked,

"[In Paris], I got to be part of the team… and share more of the common goal that we had to bring home a team gold. That was really special for me to be able to connect more with everyone. We all had really strong, passionate reasons on why we wanted what we wanted."

The gymnast further added,

"I truly think there was nothing or no one that could get in our way because we all had it on our minds for three full years of what we wanted to do and how we were going to do it. I think when you get four people together who are that motivated about something… there’s truly nothing that can get in our way.”

Carey won two medals at the Paris Olympics last year. Apart from the gold medal in the women's team all-around, Carey also won a bronze medal in the women's vault event, where her teammate Simone Biles took home the gold medal.
