I got a bronze medal and I can't complain about that, the only African-American to get a medal in the Winter Olympics.

I begged my mom to let me start skating.

I wanted to be a doctor since I was five.

I would make my mom buy me the toy doctor kit.

Probably the '86 nationals. That was my first real national title and first real statement I ever made in figure skating, and my life changed after I returned.

I just thought that it was magical having to glide across the ice.

But I like it when my patients are impressed not knowing that I was an Olympian.
