Other than my parents, another person I looked up to is Kobe Bryant. Growing up and watching him play basketball was a treat for me. I knew how important of a role he played both on and off the court. I wanted to try and model him to the best of my abilities. His death was devastating for me as he was one of my childhood idols. This motivated me even more to learn about the "Mamba Mentality" and try and copy that. I knew I would never be Kobe Bryant, but if I could use his techniques and work ethic in my life, I knew success would follow.
