Tune in every week to Lindsey Vonn's Virtual Career Day. Each week Lindsey will bring together a young Lindsey Vonn Foundation scholarship winner and an expert in the field they want to grow up to work in. During these challenging times, Lindsey wants to remind young kids that there is still something to look forward to and nothing should stop you from achieving your goals.

This week's scholar wants to grow up to be a tennis player, so we brought in Lindsey's good friend and singles tennis champion, Caroline Wozniacki.

This week we are surprising two scholars, who happen to be twins. Devin and Barrett live in Minturn and want to grow up to be professional snowboarders. So Lindsey arranged to have fellow Olympic gold medalist snowboarder Chloe Kim. Chloe went down in Winter Olympic history as the youngest ever snowboarder to win the gold medal. Chloe is also one of the youngest X Games Champions and World Champions in her sport. Beyond sport Chloe recently was accepted into Princeton University and is studying science.
