What a beautiful honor to have been able to interview Kobe. RIP to him and his daughter.
Felt pain in my chest when he said “I will do more in the next 20 years.” We didn’t just lose a super basketball athlete.....we lost so much more. I finally got Kobe’s autographed jersey for my kids, remind them what hard work is!
This guy did a brilliant job interviewing Kobe.
