From early childhood, I was interested in understanding how the world worked, and assumed I would be some kind of physical scientist or chemist.

As tough as things have been, I am convinced you are tougher. I've seen your passion and I've seen your service. I've seen you engage and I've seen you turn out in record numbers.
