I love taking challenges, as my name Leander means 'lion's heart.'
Age is just a number. When I started, I never worried about how long I was going to play. I had very specific goals, and that's what I really chased.
When the headache persisted, I checked myself into an emergency room. When the doctor used the term 'brain tumour', I feared the worst. My whole world shrank around me.
I've always had this hyper kinetic energy, so I don't really need much sleep at night.
If I have a reason to do something, and I have enough passion, I generally succeed.
