I've been to Tokyo-slash-Japan - we actually went to Yokohama in 2015 and 2013 for international competitions. I think that it would be really nice to go back and do a little Olympic thing there.

I'm confident. I'm a crowd pleaser.

Basically, I was a little bit nervous before competing beam at the Olympics, and I had this nervous thing to just talk to myself, like 'You can do it, you can do it.' And right before I hopped up there, I said, 'I got this.'

My earliest memory was watching gymnastics on live TV and wanting to do what the 'big girls' did.

I started a gymnastics class at five years old, but it became serious at seven.

A goal of making it to the Olympic Games has motivated me to work very hard in my sport.

I would love to be an actress!

Two people who really inspire me are my parents, Wanda and Anthony, just because they really made sure to keep up Hispanic culture in my family.

Life has been a really big whirlwind, but it's been a lot of fun. I travel so much, and I'm constantly doing things that I love, but it's just me.

The first meal that I learned to make was scrambled eggs.

As an athlete, the most important thing is the protein that you eat and the things that you put into your body. Without that, it's very hard to function throughout the day.

I listen to a lot of music. One of my favorite songs is 'Final Song' by M. It's something that I listen to before a lot of competitions.

Of course I'm very sassy.

My family has always been very close. Ever since I was a kid, everybody was always together, including my grandma. In the mornings, my mom would work, and my grandma would help me get ready and would walk me to school. We were all so close to her.

When I was a little kid, I don't remember looking up and seeing so many Hispanic athletes out there.

Don't let people tell you that you can't do something.

I hope the Final Five has shown that everyone is capable of success if they work hard.

I am extremely close to my grandma. Growing up, she would always do my hair; she was always the one who would make me chocolate milk or rice when I came home.

People call me the human emoji because I think people recognize that if I'm ever thinking something or feeling a certain emotion, it goes straight to my face. So if I'm happy, you'll know I'm happy, and if I'm mad, you'll know I'm mad just by looking at me.

My emotions kind of shine through my face, so whatever I'm thinking is what I'm portraying as well.

When you're a little girl, and you're watching the Olympics, and you see this very diverse group of gymnasts out there, and - I think this team, the Final 5, will inspire so many little girls to go out there and do what they love.

It's weird to hear anyone call me a role model.

The Olympics was really, really stressful because I had never done anything like it. At the same time, I was understanding something like that could never really happen again. I embraced it and took in everything.

I definitely take it as a really big responsibility on my shoulders to make sure I'm motivating my generation and the people around me and, hopefully, inspire people to try something new.

I knew when I started gymnastics, I wanted to have a lot of fun and eventually go to the Olympics. On the moments where I felt really down, I just remembered, 'You're almost there. Just keep going. Keep working hard.'

Meeting kids who feel inspired by my story, it means so much to me.

My first week at 'DWTS' was amazing! I definitely fangirled when I walked into the ballroom because I looked at all the judges and where they were sitting, and I was like, 'Wow, that's the official judges' table!'

Dancing is so much fun.

Even though I'm a gymnast, I've always loved dancing.

People have always asked me why my favorite event was floor, and my answer was always, 'Because I love to dance!'

Dancing is different than gymnastics, but it's a good different, and it's something that I've always wanted to try.

It's really hard to be all serious in the tango and not break into laughter.

Everyone keeps asking me when I have time to rest. I'll tell you when: I get all my sleep on planes. If the flight is five hours, my nap is five hours! I'll sleep through the whole flight.

I think a big part of what has helped me move forward with the sport is my family. We're all so close together, and the support system has been amazing.

I'm glad to be partnered with Orgullosa because I feel that now that I'm able to win a gold medal at the Olympics, win a silver medal, I feel little girls will be able to look up to me, and Hispanics will kind of rise a little more.

Every year, my mom makes sure I have my checkups and everything, which is probably a really good idea. She's great with all that health stuff.

Being able to wear contacts, you don't have to worry about your glasses falling off or how you look during your beam routine. As soon as they're in, literally two minutes later, you forget that they're on.

I like history because you can't really progress without knowing what comes before you, so I think it's super fascinating.

My athlete idol is Usain Bolt. He's inhumanly fast!

People would be surprised to know I had a flip phone until 2015.

My greatest inspiration is my coach, Maggie Haney.

On Sundays, I just love to go to church and then relax the whole day!

Having the opportunity to go to the U.S. Olympics was great because I was the first Latina in over 30 years to compete in gymnastics at the Olympics.

When I perform and the crowd is cheering, there's a ringing noise in my head. I'm just zoned in, and even though I know there are people watching me, all I hear is this ringing inside of me.

I never look at scores or anything.

My mom decided that she wanted to put the mirror ball trophy on the coffee table in the center of our living room. When people walk in, it's kind of like, 'Uh.' It's a little weird. Maybe we should put it in the corner or something.

I love my height because when I'm doing gymnastics, it really benefits the sport - and also, I think being short is kind of cute.

I tell everyone that I'm 5 feet-1 inch tall, but I think I'm technically 5 feet. My mom says she's 4 feet 11 inches, and I'm barely taller than her.

The thing that makes me feel the most confident is definitely my smile. I like that my smile and my facial expressions really show what I'm feeling, and my smile is the best way to show that I'm happy.

Through my life, I do want to inspire others.
