Jordan Pisey Windle was about two-years old when he was adopted by his American father, Jerry Windle, a former U.S. Navy officer who had served off Cambodia's coast. Jordan's natural diving talent has won him numerous national championship titles, including first National Champion in the 10-meter platform, the 3-meter mixed gender event with his synchronized partner, and Olympic Silver Medal. Next week, Jordan and his two-male parents, Jerry Windle and Andres Rodriguez, will travel to his birth country, Cambodia, for the first time. He hopes to inspire other children to have hope and live to their full potentials.
