Biography

Chadwick grew up in Springdale, Arkansas where she attended Har-Ber High School and won state championships in the high jump, 100 metres, 200 metres, 300 metres hurdles, and 100 metres hurdles.[3] Her parents were both collegiate runners.[7] She was inspired by Jodi Unger and April Steiner-Bennett to try the pole vault as well.[8]

After spending her first year on the Oklahoma Sooners track and field team, she transferred to the Arkansas Razorbacks track and field program.[4] At the 2018 NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships, she won the 60 m hurdles, her first NCAA national title. She defeated Anna Cockrell for the win by just 0.004 seconds, with both runners setting personal bests in the final.[9]

In 2020, Chadwick achieved her first senior national podium finish by placing 2nd in the 60 m hurdles at the 2020 USA Indoor Track and Field Championships.[10] After the COVID-19 pandemic, Chadwick moved to Paris, Texas with her husband to train for the 2021 Summer Olympics.[11]

At the 2021 United States Olympic trials, Chadwick finished 7th in the 100 metres hurdles final.[1]

Chadwick also owns a cooking brand, Prepping with Pay, along with her husband and Arkansas Razorbacks baseball player Cannon Chadwick.[7]
