Thank you for supporting me while I worked on my BSEE.
Any people that I miss on this list I apologise in advance. This degree is extremely important to me because I thought that when I failed to achieve it the first time that I would not have another chance. The success this time around is symbolic of the ways I have changed my life and consiousness to become greater than I thought possible and to achieve a long held goal, becoming a professional electrical engineer.
- Kimberly L. Shute, who encouraged me to try again and loved me when I was distinctly unlovable.
- Gabriel O. Shute, who shows me how to live to the fullest.
- Mom, Judy Osborne, who told me to try hard, the inverse of which is, "Don't do it half-assed
do it the best you can." I forgot that for a while, but luckily I eventually remembered.
