I always had a basketball in my hands when I was little. Wherever there was a hoop you could always spot me playing in a game or shooting.

I never had a problem shooting the ball since I began shooting at a young age. Dribbling and defense were the two things I worked on when I got to middle school. I practiced dribbling the ball a lot at that time, and I think all the practice helped me in the end.

I had a Fisher-Price goal, and I used to always shoot the ball. All I did was shoot the ball.

I coached a little bit of everything, including football and basketball. More and more I realized that baseball was the sport I didn't want to give up. It's a passion. I love it.

My ultimate goal in life is to have my own insurance company. I still want to play basketball at some level after college.

Victory makes you want to keep going. When you see that you can do something in little steps, it's very motivating.
