Laurie Hernandez, a retired artistic gymnast, has a rich history of accomplishments in her field. She was a part of the renowned "Final Five" U.S. women's gymnastics team, claiming the team gold medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics. Individually, Hernandez showcased her skills on the balance beam, earning a silver medal at the same Olympics. She also contributed to team gold victories at the 2016 City of Jesolo Trophy and 2016 Pacific Rim Gymnastics Championships.

Hernandez has been recognized for her contributions to her field and the public. She received a Jefferson Award for Public Service and was inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame in June 2019. Even after retiring from gymnastics on June 6, 2021, Hernandez remained active in the gymnastics community, participating in Simone Biles' Gold Over America Tour in fall 2021.

Her stories resonated with the audience, especially how her mom was a great motivator throughout her gymnastics career and the importance of representation.
