“I am fortunate to have many wonderful people in my life who motivate me to do my best, but my sister is the key to my success. Her influence has encouraged me to strive to reach my full potential. Her success has inspired me to want to follow in her footsteps and make her proud. She played a vital role in my motivation to be the best version of myself. Something that she always told me was don't compare your success to others, what is your best is good enough. Being the best version of yourself and reaching your full potential is the definition of success.”
