American Quote by AJ Lee

“I want people to know where I come from. I…” quote by AJ Lee — Download Open image

“I want people to know where I come from. I think I have come really far from that, and I did it on my own. It's sort of the American dream to come from absolutely nothing and to succeed while still doing something that you love. Not compromising yourself in any way. I hope I'm making Jersey proud in that way.”
