“Growing up my parents have sacrificed so much to give me opportunities, and that drives me to go hard in everything I do. Seeing their hard work and dedication motivates me to push myself on and off the court. I want to make them proud by giving my all, staying focused, and making the most of every opportunity. Their sacrifices remind me that success isn't just for me it's for them too, and I won't let it go to waste.”
