I’m in the dictionary next to: Dedicated, because whenever I do something, I give 100 percent; I’m never half-hearted about anything.

What would you do if you had $100,000? I’d give some to my family, and I’d take a trip around the world.
What do you wish your high school offered? Men’s indoor volleyball in the spring. I think we’d be pretty good.
What’s a tip you would give freshmen for making high school life easier? Do what you can to stay friends with your classmates through high school. Time is going to run out.
