I wanted to express my gratitude to you for being an amazing & nurturing mentor and grader. I learned so much every time I was able to attend your office hours, and I always appreciated the feedback from your videos. I have to fight a lot of critical thoughts and every time I watched your feedback videos I felt a surge of pride, inspiration, and motivation.  Thank you so much for your wisdom, kindness, and patience. I expect to grow within this field and I hope to cross paths again the future.
