* Who is your personal hero and why?
"My personal heroes would have to be my family who have shown nothing but support for me from the day I started elementary school. With sports and other activities keeping me away from my family, I gained a greater understanding of how much of an impact they have on my life. They would always be there to make me smile or laugh and for that I cannot be more grateful. No matter what becomes of me in this life I want to ensure my parents are proud to call me their son."
