At six years old, Grace was doing cartwheels, handstands, and all things gymnastics in her home, so her mom signed Grace up for a recreational class at Legacy Gymnastics in Eden Prairie, MN. She advanced quickly through all the recreational levels and within a year, she made the Fast Track team. Grace began competing level 4 by the 2017 season. She tested out of level 5 and quickly moved up to level 6 for the 2019 season. She won the uneven bars and floor exercise titles at the 2019 Level 6 State Championships.
Grace qualified to the 2020 Level 7 State Championships but was unable to compete due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She then moved up to level 8 for the 2021 season where she qualified to the Region 4 Championships. In 2022, Grace placed second in the all-around and second on vault and floor exercise at the Level 8 State Championships. She placed fourth in the all-around and first on vault at the Region 4 Championships.
As a level 9 gymnast in 2023, Grace placed sixth in the all-around and third on floor exercise at the Region 4 Championships. She qualified to the Level 9 Eastern Nationals where she placed fifth on vault and ninth on floor exercise. Grace moved up to level 10 for the 2024 season. She won the vault title at the State Championships and placed second on vault with a 9.675 at the Region 4 Championships. She was named alternate for the Level 10 Nationals and competed as a vault specialist in the all-star session.
When Grace isn't busy training over 20 hours each week in the gym, she enjoys going to her family's cabin, boating and swimming. She is the daughter to Katie and Ryan Wieber and she has a brother, Jack and two rescued dogs named Maisy and Max. Currently, Grace is an honor student at Eden Prairie High School and she will graduate in 2027.
