While I circled around and around in my brown rental skates, I studied a group of skaters spinning in the center. I was fascinated! When my mom picked me up, I began a campaign for skating lessons.

There were a couple of years where I was skating and acting at the same time.

I actually have an ice-skating background. I skated until I was 15, for about eight years. It was hardcore skating for about eight hours a day.

I started skating when I was six years old.

Actually, I've always wanted to be a professional skateboarder ever since I was about six.

As soon as I was introduced to ice speed skating, I was instantly hooked. I never thought about pursuing skating professionally; I just enjoyed doing it.

My whole life has been the skate life. I don't really remember doing anything besides skateboarding.

I think skating helped me find myself.

When I was skating you had to participate in every thing.
