When you're going through tough moments, you never know when you're going to have good moments.

A great tennis career is something that a 15-year-old normally doesn't have. I hope my example helps other teens believe they can accomplish things they never thought possible.

My main goal is to stay healthy because when you're injured you realise how lucky you are to have your health.

There's not many firsts in my career, as I have been a part of many tournaments and fortunate enough to win many.

I was actually born in New York City, but my family moved to Atlantic City when I was five, this being my dad's home town, so I think that qualifies me as a Jersey resident if not a bona fide native.

I am a family person and also very emotional by nature.

My father, I think he played percussion in high school. My mother played piano when she was very young, but only for a brief while. I don't think she had a great teacher. In any case, neither of them were really into music at a young age.

I've tried to live my life in a way that respects the beliefs of my mother and father. Everyone has blessings, gifts, passion, and drive.
