Livvy Dunne’s sparkle is incredible. From her beginnings as the cutest little gymnast ever to becoming an LSU superstar and household name, the NCAA champion has documented it all.
Take a journey through her gymnast career below. (And don’t feel weird about it! Dunne herself changed the caption of her very first Instagram photo from 2012: “It’s OK, I probably stalked you too,” she joked.)
