Con solo 18 años, 'Gu Ailing' ha triunfado en todo lo que se ha propuesto: atleta profesional en esquí acrobático, modelo de proyección internacional, estudiante superdotada con beca en Stanford, activista por el empoderamiento de las mujeres y voz del cambio… Eileen Gu nació en San Francisco, de padre norteamericano y madre china, y en 2019 tomó la decisión de representar al país de nacimiento de su progenitora que no permite la doble nacionalidad por lo que debía renunciar a ser norteamericana... al menos con carácter oficial. “Cuando estoy en China, soy china. Cuando estoy en EE UU, soy norteamericana. Tengo doble identidad. Y estas dos mitades hacen lo que soy a día de hoy", dice a Olympics.com.
