Audrey Shin

Team USA Figure Skater

Audrey Shin is Korean American figure skater for Team USA in pair discipline. She has won silver in the U.S. Junior Nationals and took bronze at Skate America as a teenager.

After a serious injury and going through rehab, Audrey is on the journey of pairs skating for Team USA and preparing for the upcoming 2026 Winter Olympics.

“I chose to be an AKP Sports Foundation ambassador because the group lifts up Korean-American athletes like me. After coming back from a serious injury, I wanted to share hope with skaters who feel overlooked or underfunded. AKP lets me mentor younger athletes, celebrate our heritage, and give back through faith based service.”

Andrew Heo

Short Track Speed Skater

Andrew Heo is a Korean American short track speed skater and two time Olympian who represented Team USA at the 2022 Beijing and

2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics. At the end of 2025, he recently became the first US man to win gold at an ISU World Tour event in 11 years.

Through his journey as an elite athlete, Andrew hopes to inspire the next generation to pursue their dreams, embrace their identity, and recognize that it’s possible to prioritize faith and also compete at the highest level.

"I chose to become an AKP Sports Foundation ambassador because I believe sports are more than just competition and that God has given me a platform that’s meant to be used for something much greater than myself. I really love AKP's mission and commitment to share God's love and the gospel through sports and service. I'm blessed to have the opportunity to encourage others, give back to the community, and prove that you can pursue your dreams at the highest level while keeping Christ at the center of it all. I hope to use the gifts God has given me to glorify Him and make a positive impact on others."
