Jordan Moeller (born April 24, 1995) is an American figure skater. He won the junior gold medal at the 2013 Gardena Spring Trophy and silver on the junior level at the 2014 U.S. Championships. He was selected for the 2014 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria, where he placed ninth in both segments and overall.[1]

After graduating from Harold L. Richards High School in Oak Lawn, Illinois,[2] Moeller began taking classes at Moraine Valley Community College.[3] In May 2013, he was one of the recipients of U.S. Figure Skating's Athlete Alumni Ambassador (3A) award.[4] In 2016, he decided to major in psychology at the University of Colorado.[5]

While practicing a quad toe loop on December 22, 2015, Moeller fractured his fibula and tore a ligament in his right ankle; as a result, he withdrew from the 2016 U.S. Championships.[5]
