I can value very few things above what my collaborators mean to me. Not only am I inspired by their fierce intellect and their boundless enthusiasm, but also deeply influenced by their sense of adventure. To be around these immaculate human beings is to learn and grow. I love them to death and would hug them at any point in time.
