"I want to be the person you ask for when you're struggling, and I want to be the person you reach out to for advice or you reach out to let something off your chest. Anything I give is supposed to be a positive thing, it's supposed to help you, and I'm going to try and push people to move forward and help them overcome whatever they have if they have the confidence or the courage to bring that to me." - Ava Brown
