It's just an honor to compete in New York, New Jersey, the tri-state area, where we're from. I have so much roots there, so much family.
I was born in Shawnee, Oklahoma.
I was born in Battle Creek, Michigan, about 20 miles from Kalamazoo. I lived around there for about seven years. That community is one that I really care about.
I've never thought of leaving the South, never.
Rather than pinpointing any particular part of the country as a place where the family lives, I would prefer to have readers think we live just down the street from their own home.
I am proud of where I come from and I will never forget the people I grew up with.
I am High Wycombe born and bred.
Yorkshire is so much part of me.
I was born in New Jersey and lived there until I was about 10, so Jersey is in my roots.
Before anyone ever cared where I would play basketball, I was a kid from Northeast Ohio. It’s where I walked. It’s where I ran. It’s where I cried. It’s where I bled. It holds a special place in my heart.
I was born in Jersey City and raised in Bayonne, New Jersey. It's a town that's next to Jersey City, and I'm still there!
When a little more than a teenager, I was a piano-bar pianist in the land where I was born and raised, Tuscany.
I am a Bay Area guy, no question.
When people ask me where I'm from I say I'm from Oklahoma.
I was raised to believe that New England is the best place on the planet.
I live in Cullowhee, North Carolina. That's where I teach, at Western Carolina University. That region is where my family has lived for a long time and that region is my landscape.
Punjab has given me so much.
