Ive been fortunate to be short my entire life. Theres only one position Ive ever had to play, and thats point guard. So Ive always had to be that leader. And that was my job: you know, to talk.

I try to penetrate the lane like Steve Nash, pass like Jason Kidd, and handle the ball like Allen Iverson. Remember, I said 'try to'.

I consider myself a student of life.

The Bible, and the peace that comes about through a continuous relationship with God are the best ways of knowing His will.

Music comes out of me most naturally and would be the hardest to give up forever.

There are only three things I can do - make a dress, decorate a house, and entertain people.
