Key Quotes:


“I've just been really lucky or have done a good job of
surrounding myself with people that are similar, that are just
very growth minded. That's what I mean by learning basis is
people that understand that, like, there's always room for
improvement. And your perspective isn't always the only one that
exists. And I think that's probably the biggest piece that my
parents really helped drive home for me and my sister.” - Kimi
Donahue

when I do it, I want to be the best I can be at it. That's hence,
where the competitive nature comes in. You know, I enjoy
recognition, I enjoy being a winner.” - Kimi Donahue
