Favorite Quote: "I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan

What are some suggestions you have for future college students: Get involved in your school- it's a lot of fun and you make lots of friends! Don't pack a bunch of athletic shirts because you get a million from your school for free! Try to eat well from the beginning, unhealthy food is so easy to access, it's important to learn self-control early on or the freshman 15 will actually happen!
