It has been a privilege to speak with each of you, and I am proud to carry your collective voice to others. I would like to thank Kristy Sheeler, my advisor throughout undergraduate and graduate school, for giving me the rhetorical foundation on which I have built my scholastic career. You introduced me to Bitzer and Fisher, whose work became my academic lenses as I made sense of my small place in the world. I also thank you for gently pulling me back when my ideas have been larger than the task at hand. I would like to thank John Parrish-Sprowl for giving me innovative ways to think about things—even those that seem most routine. You exude knowledge during every conversation and help everyone to be cognizant of the fact that learning is a lifelong process. Additionally, I would like to thank Kristine Karnick for always believing that my ideas are interesting and that I have important things to say.
