There's nothing better than going out there and seeing USA on your leotard.

Tumbling has always been my favorite.

I feel like I'm really blessed and lucky that I have a very good social life outside of the gym, and I have a really amazing family. My parents are so supportive. I have a younger brother and two younger sisters, and they're really awesome. So I feel like I get the best of both worlds.

When I first turned elite in gymnastics, when I was 14, that's when I really became more inspired than ever. I just always kept that in the back of my mind, and always thought about making the 2012 team.

I'm focused now, definitely. I absolutely need to show everyone that I'm powerful and strong and can be graceful and artistic, too.

The majority of the things that I do, I'm actually afraid to do, but you just have to have a positive attitude and block out any fears that you have.

You have to give 110% all the time. 100% isn't good enough anymore.
