I would like to extend my personal thanks to my family for their patience and support during a challenging but very knowledge filled year full of international experiences. I would like to thank my mother and sisters for their support of my academic pursuits; and also my father Henry Sutton for his unconditional support in all of my academic and professional pursuits – may he rest in peace.
