Jennifer Don (born October 6, 1984; Chinese: 唐文珍; pinyin: Táng Wénzhēn) is a Taiwanese American figure skater who competed in both the pairs and singles disciplines. For most of her career, she represented the United States in competition. With partner Jonathon Hunt, she is the 2003 World Junior bronze medalist in pairs. As a single skater, she won the 2003 Nebelhorn Trophy, becoming the first woman to win a competition under the ISU International Judging System.[1] In 2006, she represented Chinese Taipei. Jennifer is a PSA member and CER A certified.[2]

Personal life

Don was born on October 6, 1984 in Houston, Texas.[3] She graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2009, where she earned a bachelor's degree in Global Studies.[4]

Skating career

Don started skating at the age of 10.[5] As a singles skater, she was the 2001 U.S. national bronze medalist on the novice level and the 2002 U.S. silver medalist on the junior level.[6][7]

As a pair skater, Don won the bronze medal with Jonathon Hunt at the 2003 World Junior Championships.[8] They announced the end of their partnership on March 2005,[9] Hunt having decided to retire.[10] Don was unable to find another partner so she decided to compete as a single skater for Taiwan.[10] In 2005, she won the Chinese Taipei National Championships.[11]
