My mom used to tell me when I was little, 'When it rains, it's God's manifestation - a big day's waiting to happen.'

Never give up and always keep fighting, because though times may be tough, the sacrifices do pay off, so just keep pushing towards your dream and just love it at the same time and enjoy it.

Gold medals are made out of sweat, blood and tears and effort in the gym every day.

The hard work definitely paid off and hard work always does.

I just spent my whole life training and focused on one thing, I really don't even think about after the fact! It's like, oh yeah, I have to do something after!

Always be courageous and strong, and don't fear.

I like to hike and play with my dogs and spend time with my family. We go out to family dinners a lot.
