I wanted to be a marine biologist my whole life until I graduated high school.

I love macaroni and cheese. I could eat it every meal of the day.

Just do your best. I find that if I set that goal for myself and no one else, I feel good.

There's something cool about traveling when you're young. There's a sense of camaraderie. You learn more about yourself.

Secretly, or maybe not so secretly, I've always wanted to be a rock star.

Kindness is something that I feel is leaving us a little bit - people are getting more self-involved.

Staying at home with your kids is probably one of the hardest jobs, emotionally, physically and mentally.

Being nervous isn't bad. It just means something important is happening.

Life is a rock, but the radio rolled me over.

We typically don't choose our athletes until about a month prior to the Games because anything can happen.
