Isabeau Levito

[2] Levito cites skaters Alena Kostornaia, Evgenia Medvedeva, Elizaveta Tuktamysheva, and Kaori Sakamoto as being her skating inspirations and role models.

[6] Levito began taking private lessons with her current coach Yulia Kuznetsova (née Myskina), a former pair skater, at age three.

She won both segments of the competition to take the title ahead of South Korean skater Kim Chae-yeon and Canadian competitor Kaiya Ruiter.

[7] At her second event in October which was the 2021 JGP Austria, Levito took the silver medal; Russian skaters Sofia Muravieva placed first and Anastasia Zinina was third.

She placed fourth in the short program and narrowly advanced to second in the free skate to take the bronze medal overall, behind Mariah Bell and Karen Chen.

[13] However, due to both the invasion and concerns related to the Omicron variant, the World Junior Championships was not held in Sofia in early March; they were moved to Tallinn, Estonia in mid-April.

[14] At Junior Worlds, Levito won the short program, introducing a Lutz-loop combination into competition, with a score of 72.50, 3.12 points ahead of Shin Ji-a of South Korea.

[26] Levito stepped out of her opening jump combination and fell on her triple flip; she was visibly unhappy with her performance at the conclusion, but it proved sufficient to place second in the segment elevating her to second overall.

"[26] Levito entered the 2023 U.S. Championships as the heavy favourite for the gold medal, and won the short program by a 0.02-point margin over former champion Bradie Tennell, who was making a gradual return from injury.

[29] Heading into a Four Continents Championships held on home soil in Colorado Springs, Levito was considered one of the favourites for the gold medal.

[30] She finished second in the short program, 1.34 points behind South Korean Kim Ye-lim, winning a silver small medal.

[32] A month later, Levito was ready to compete at the 2023 World Championships, and received a new personal best score in the short program, despite the second part of her jump combination being judged a quarter underrotated.

She was fifth in that segment, but remained in fourth place overall, and finished less than three points behind Belgian bronze medalist Loena Hendrickx.

[39] Levito began the Grand Prix at the 2023 Skate America, where she finished narrowly third in the segment, 1.38 points behind second-place Amber Glenn.

"[41] She won the short program at the 2023 Grand Prix de France, her second event, by a margin of 5.10 points over second-place Anastasiia Gubanova.

[43][44] As the 2023–24 Grand Prix Final approached, Levito described herself as "a little bit sick," though claiming after a last-place short program with errors on all of her jumping passes that "in general nothing is really wrong."

[48] Two months later, at the 2024 World Championships in Montreal, Levito finished second in the short program with a personal best score of 73.73 points.

She won the bronze medal at the 2024 CS Cranberry Cup International behind fellow Americans, Sarah Everhardt and Elyce Lin-Gracey.

At the 2024 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, she placed fifth in the short program but second in the free skate, moving up to second-place overall behind Elyce Lin-Gracey.

[58] She returned to competition in February at the Road to 26 Trophy in Milan, which served as a test event for the 2026 Winter Olympics.

She also said that while she had hoped she could attempt a more difficult triple-triple combination in her program, she was not quite ready to do so yet as she had only resumed training jumps three weeks previously.
