Mirai Nagasu Says Her Parents’ Hard Work In Restaurant Inspires Her Discipline On Ice

It’s no secret figure skater Mirai Nagasu is a hard worker. And the Olympian says the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Nagasu, who became the first American woman to land a triple axel at the Winter Games, spent much of her childhood at her parents’ sushi restaurant in Arcadia, California. She even slept in the establishment many nights as her parents worked.

During that time, she picked up some important life skills.

“I have a great work ethic because I’ve watched my parents work super hard,” the figure skater said, according to The Washington Post.
