If you put your mind to it, anything is possible.

Work hard. Through determination and self-focus and discipline, you can accomplish anything.

The key lesson for me: Don't make this life about you. It's about other people.

I'm a very fertile Puerto Rican.

I would be flattered and honored to be considered for any position where I could serve my country.

When my mom, Mercedes, and her younger sister, Juanita, first came from Puerto Rico, they were the youngest in the family. They had to jump into a new community and really learn English, assimilate, and adapt - and I saw that. I grew up in that community.

I've always had an interest in broadcast journalism and the law. So it's nice that I can combine the two.

I hold a mini-New Year's Eve party each year with my son Ronan, and we make pigs in a blanket. They are delicious!

You really have to prove yourself and prove your worth. I didn't come from family that had been here for generations and had all these connections.
