"I am inspired by the vastness of the world. I grew up in a small town in Michigan and never ever began to imagine how incredible places could be until I began to travel last year. I love meeting people from different backgrounds and asking them about their lives."
"I wish I would have appreciated my coaches more. I have played sports since I could basically walk. I never realized how much time my coaches invested in me. I would get mad when they made me do stupid drills or when I didn't play as much as I wanted to, but they really cared."

"I'm inspired by hard work. Some people rely on luck, some rely on others. I prefer to rely on myself, that way, I earn what I accomplish. Different perspectives are also key for me. I've seen so many examples of people who become too concerned with the immediate present, their immediate surroundings, and we forget that there's a whole world out there. I am in awe of those who are truly open minded and persistently hard working."
"A nagging theme that has been following me around is the lack of presence in the present. So many of my days are spent running around going to the next meeting, the next coprorate presentation, that I forget what it's like to live in one of the best times of our lives--college. I want to be more consistently aware. All the time."
