MY PARENTS CHOSE THIS NAME BECAUSE: I want to be a pilot when I grow up.
PARENTS' WISH OR ADVICE: We wish you good grades so you can get into veterinarian school. We also wish you 20/20 vision so your side job as a fighter pilot works well.
SOMETHING SPECIAL: It was 110 degrees outside the day I was born. Mommy and Daddy's house doesn't have air conditioning yet, so being in the hospital during the hottest three days of the year in Sioux City was great timing!
