* Who is your personal hero and why?
"I cannot say that I have a personal hero because there are so many people in my life who have greatly affected the person I am today. My family is my hero. They are my strength and love in every way, and I cannot thank them enough. My parents especially have taught me the power of family, culture and dreams, and just how much you can achieve with your heart. Thank you so much, Mom and Dad, for the love, discipline and guidance that've made me who I am today."
