I Just Wanted To Be An Athlete.

Nobody Cared About Swimming. You Could Draw A Crowd For Basketball.

After A Few Games I Knew I Was Going To Be Able To Compete. The Idea Of Being A Star Never Crossed My Mind.

Perseverance Isn't Just The Willingness To Work Hard. It's That Plus The Willingness To Be Stubborn About Your Own Belief In Yourself.

I Probably Played Hurt A Lot More Times Than I Should Have.

The Focus Of My Life Begins At Home With Family, Loved Ones And Friends. I Want To Use My Resources To Create A Secure Environment That Fosters Love, Learning, Laughter And Mutual Success. I Will Protect And Value Integrity. I Will Admit And Quickly Correct My Mistakes. I Will Be A Self-starter. I Will Be A Caring Person. I Will Be A Good Listener With An Open Mind. I Will Continue To Grow And Learn. I Will Facilitate And Celebrate The Success Of Others.
