I try to do stories that make a difference -- stories that affect the way people think, stories that people need to hear -- and usually what drives me is to do stories about people who have no voice, people who have no political power, people who are overlooked by society.

I choose to fill my days with what I'm passionate about, and live with purpose.

If you can have faith in your real self, you'll suffer less. Be bold about who you really are.

Journalism is an act of faith in the future.

When you treat yourself right, you run better and more efficiently. Which means you don't have to go 100 miles an hour to get everything done.

I know NBC pays my salary but I have never doubted who I work for. I think about the people who watch. They're the ones who matter to me.

I think eventually I want to become a teacher, like my father wanted to be, and hopefully positively influence the next generation.
