As the youngest member of the U.S. Olympic team at the Tokyo

2023 FINA World Championships.
“Katie Grimes is an accomplished young swimmer known for her
remarkable achievements in the pool, and Travel + Leisure Co.

Games,” said Scott Cavanaugh, vice president, Strategic
Partnerships and Licensing, Travel + Leisure Co. “We look forward
to working with Katie as our athlete ambassador and cheering her on
this summer.”
As one of the youngest two-time Olympians in history, Katie has
captivated audiences with her extraordinary talent and unwavering
determination. Now, she brings her passion for adventure and travel
to her role as an athlete ambassador for Travel + Leisure Co. on
her journey to Paris 2024.
"The Travel + Leisure approach to providing top-tier hospitality
