Give me an example of when you failed at something. How did you react and how did you overcome failure?

•  When I was in JuCo, I didn’t do well in school and had to do one full year without football so that I could get my grades up. It was a struggle for me because there was an enormous hurricane that hit Haiti that year and I wasn’t able to contact my mother and I just gave up. However, I had to force myself to keep pushing and when I found out she was okay I was able to push even harder. I overcame this by staying at home to study more often and getting a tutor.

What would your career be if you couldn’t play football?

Room, desk, and car – which do you clean first?

•  I clean my room first

If there was a disaster and you could either save three strangers or one family member, which would you choose and why?
