My mother and I share a mantra that means if I believe I can do anything that I put my mind to. I enjoy reading and my favorite books are the Bible and the Hero Series by Rick Riordan. I am a huge sci-fi movie fan with my favorite being any Stars Wars movie. The athlete that I admire most is Muhammad Ali because of his perseverance.
