I want to be the best role model I can be for my family.

We want to seal the deal that we're the best team that's ever happened.

That's a very privileged job and I love it with all my heart. I'm planning on playing my best volleyball to date throughout 2016 and certainly during the Olympics.

I'm doing mental training as well. So, you know, body, mind, and spirit - everything is being addressed, every single day. Generally I'll have three training sessions a day.

It's not a sprint to get in shape.

I firmly believe that when you have a foundation of respect, love of what you're doing, and a shared vision, so much is possible.

I honestly feel like my job since I was 22 has been to be an Olympian.
