Philosophy / Motto
"I think the thing I enjoy is how difficult it is. It's taught me a lot about delayed gratification because it could take a day, it could take a month, it could take a year to learn just one simple skill that may take your teammate five minutes. So, it really forces you to learn how to be patient and just respect how difficult things are and just expect that it may take longer than you wish you hope it to, but just be ready for the ride. Be there and just enjoy the strength and the struggle. Enjoy the struggle." (stanford.rivals.com, 19 Jul 2023)
