"The best piece of advice I have been given is to never give up. If you have your heart set on something, don't let anyone tell you not to follow it. Taste your dreams. During my tennis career, there's been moments that I've wanted to give up on matches if I'm down 1-5 and I persevere. I win the set somehow. [It] shows you never give up, even if people tell you that you're gonna lose."

“I felt like African American culture was probably a dominant culture at the time [1990’s], but in terms of education, that would have been the place where it was like, ‘How come we don't talk about this, how come we don't talk about this culture [African American]’. Interestingly enough, I remember my sophomore year in high school taking African history, but we didn't have African American history as an option at my school. That's not the case now, but then it was the case. I was actually thrilled to take African history because I didn't really have a connection, and that kind of fostered a connection to [Africa], like African Americans are connected to Africa.”
