If you've got hips, you can't be a gymnast or dancer. That ruled me out.

Sport taught me how to goal set, it really gave me a voice and identity.

Celebrate what you've accomplished, but raise the bar a little higher each time you succeed.

Follow your heart and make it your decision.

I'm a part of a team, and I'm no better or any worse than any single player on this team. That's the approach I've always had and will continue to have. It's not about me. It has never been all about me. If it had, this would have been a really lonely journey.

I am building a fire, and everyday I train, I add more fuel. At just the right moment, I light the match.

I don't like to play rough, but I will if I have to.
