She first captured the world's attention in two thousand twelve when she clinched the gold medal in the halfpipe at the FIS Junior Snowboarding World Championships at just fifteen years old.
The following year, Gold continued to impress by winning another gold medal in the halfpipe at the FIS Snowboarding World Championships two thousand thirteen, making her the second-youngest snowboarder to achieve this prestigious title at the age of sixteen. Her talent was further showcased when she earned a bronze medal in the superpipe at the Winter X Games XVII in two thousand thirteen.
