Two people that inspire me the most are my parents. They push me to do my very best in everything I do, even if I don't agree with them. My mom (Staci) has had a very big impact on my life. She has always been there for me to lean on and to get very helpful advice. She inspires me because she is a very strong person and will never give up. My dad (Derek) is the same way. I've always been able to go to him for advice on life and sports, even if it's not always the best advice. My dad inspires me because he shows me that you just have to be who you are as a person around other people. I know that I can always be myself around them and that they will always love me!

Another person that inspires me is Jesse Owens. I don't personally know him, but from the stories I've heard he is a very inspirational guy. He shows people that you can't worry about what other people think is the right thing to do. If you want to do it then do it. He didn't really care what people thought of him either. Which is a really good thing because it doesn't matter what they think of you, it matters what you think of yourself. He is definitely a guy that everyone should be inspired by.
