I don’t necessarily try to be a role model. I know I’m being watched by a lot of people, especially young people, but that can get taxing if you’re constantly trying to teach somebody what you want them to learn. People don’t like being told what to do no way but if you think about what you want to teach somebody else or teach somebody younger than you then be that person that you want them to see you being. If you take some of the time away from figuring out how to teach them and actually become that person then they are going to learn from observation. So anything that I want to be, I strive to become myself. I can be proud to genuinely be myself and let other people see; I think that's what being a role model is all about.
