If You Look At Me, Basically My Whole Entire Life I've Been Around Water. So When You Look At A Stat Like, "if You Leave The Faucet Running For Two Minutes While You Brush Your Teeth You Waste Four Gallons Of Water," To Me That's Mind-blowing. There Are So Many People That Don't Even Have Access To Clean Water, And People Leave Their Faucets Running. For Me It Was Something That Fit With Things That I Believe In.

I Felt Comfortable In The Water. I Was In My Own World, Focused. I Love Sports And I'm A Very Goal-oriented Person. Once I Started Falling In Love With Sports, It Was Easy. I Was Able To Put My Mind On Something And Go For It. That's How I Am With Everything, It Doesn't Matter What It Is That I Do. If I Want To Do Something, Nothing Will Stand In My Way.
