I wouldn't like to be invisible for a day. But if I was... I'd probably be up to no good.

When you have a new coach, a couple new guys, and a young team, the frustrating part throughout the year is the up and down.

I had this one teacher, and as I got older and translated things he used to say, it was racist and hatred stuff he was saying toward me and my brother.

What I try to do is to look ahead of me and not look back. Whether that's a good thing or bad thing, I'm just focused on trying to get better.

When people ask me where I'm from, I say I'm from the Sudan. But when they ask what my hometown is, I say London. It's where I lived, and it's where my whole family lived.

Even in high school, when I had injuries, I tried to play with them. When I shouldn't have worked out, I worked out.

South Sudan is my home, and I am humbled to be in a position to help those suffering from lack of access to basic needs, especially the children facing severe acute malnutrition.

I remember when we were in Egypt as refugees. It was tough, but there was always hope - hope that there's light at the end of the tunnel.

I try to let my highs not be too high and my lows not be too low. And I do that just because I try to control my emotions.
