There have been many obstacles and life changing challenges that I have had to face. One of those being losing my mother to cancer my first year of high school. I had to take on the task of caring for my younger brother and sister all while managing sports, school, and my own personal issues. My favorite motto is "Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do."
