I'd like to thank my parents, Pamela and Ian, for raising me to be
polite, hardworking, and curious about the world. I'm grateful to my
sisters, Emily and Juliet, for loving me despite being their awkward
older brother. I'd also like to express my gratitude to my friends and
colleagues who inspire me technically and creatively. Lastly, thanks
to all the students I have taught over the years for making me strive
to be a better teacher, especially Jared.
