I always wear my evil eye necklace to ward off bad karma. I always wear one to protect me.

Always wear a smile because you never know who is watching.

There is always the next big thing, the next big skater.

When it comes down to competition, it's not always about the best skater, it's about who skates the best in that competition.

My mom was born in San Diego, around Vista. So we've always been California people.

Now that I have an Olympic medal in my room, it makes me hungry for another and a different color one.
