"I feel that [people] are really kind in saying that, but I have so much further to go to be in the shadow of her, let alone, right next to her. I appreciate that and it actually sets higher expectations on me than I put on myself.

She’s accomplished so much that hopefully I’ll be able to do one the creative side in the things I like to do."
