I want to sincerely thank all the members of my nomination team. I cannot even express how much your support means to me. The time and energy each of you took in developing the extensive portfolio for submission is a lasting testament to your thoughtfulness:

The letters from all my colleagues speak eloquently and give me a real sense of satisfaction and gratification every time I read them.

Thank you to each of these people who took time out of their own busy schedules to write a personal letter of support on behalf of my nomination.
