Personal Life[]
Pierce's hobbies include drawing and painting.
Personal Life[]
Pierce was a competitive gymnast until she was nine years old. She went through a period of practicing gymnastics and figure skating, until eventually she decided to make a commitment to only figure skating.
Career[]
During the 2015-16 season, Pierce's freeskate was initially the Pas de Deux from The Nutcracker. In the beginning of the season, she switched it to Concierto de Aranjuez. Three months before 2016 US Nationals, Pierce changed her freeskate again to Danse Macabre, as she couldn't feel a "strong connection" to her previous program.
Pierce's fifth place finish at the 2016 US Championships in the senior division qualified her for the 2016 World Junior Championships.
