So You Know She Is Legit...

Shannon has won an astounding 59 International and 49 National competition
medals. Over half of these have been gold. She is the first US gymnast to win 2 World
All-Around Titles. Her tally of five medals (2 silver, 3 bronze) at the 1992 Olympics
was the most medals won by a US athlete in any sport. At the ’96 Games, she led the
“Magnificent Seven” to the US Women’s first ever Team Gold and for the first time
for any American gymnast, she captured Gold on the Balance Beam.
After retiring from Olympic competition, Shannon received her undergraduate
degrees in marketing and entrepreneurship from the University of Houston and her
law degree from Boston College.
