* Who is your personal hero and why?

"Daddy's little girl. That's what I am and always will be. My dad is my rock - my foundation and support. He's the one I go to for advice and the person I cry to when something doesn't go just right. I know he sacrifices enormously to care for my sister and me, and he leads by example. He's the one who taught me to push myself as hard as I possibly can to achieve my goals. I've succeeded thus far in life because of him. He is my hero."
