Skating background

[edit]

Lin won the gold medal at the 2011 Chinese Taipei Figure Skating Championships in Taipei, Taiwan at the age of 16. There were no other competitors in her division, and therefore Lin won by default.[1]

Lin, with the help of Madison Olivieri, created Skate for Love, a figure skating cause for cancer research.[3] The proceeds went on to help the Susan G. Komen for the Cure charity.[4]
