From the Paper:

"The last factor that has played an important role in my life is the impact of my community. I was raised in a Southern farm town where if you are not related then you have known the towns people since you where born. Growing up in such a small town has taught me to hold true to one's word and always be willing to help someone in need. Though some may say these are not the first qualities to look for in a diverse person. These qualities have helped in every area of my life."
