About
Jordan Romero summited Mount Everest at 13, becoming one of the world's youngest mountaineers. Born in the US in 1996, he was inspired by a school painting of the seven continents' highest peaks. By age 15, he completed the Seven Summits—all seven continental summits—breaking the previous record and later writing a children's novel about the experience.

Biography
Jordan Romero reached Mount Everest's summit at 13 years old, accompanied by his father Paul Romero, stepmother Karen Lundgren, and three Sherpas: Ang Pasang Sherpa, Lama Dawa Sherpa, and Lama Karma Sherpa. This broke the previous record held by Ming Kipa of Nepal, who summited at 15 in 2003. Inspired by a painting in his school hallway depicting the seven continents' highest mountains, Romero went on to complete the Seven Summits in December 2011 at age 15 years, 5 months, 12 days—the youngest person ever to do so, surpassing George Atkinson's prior record. After these climbs, he wrote *No Summit Out of Sight*, a novel for children. Born July 12, 1996, in the United States, Romero is a writer and mountaineer. His Cancer sign carries themes of determination and emotional connection to personal goals.
