"Recently, I was awarded the Top 40 Under 40 award by OKCBiz. It's an honor and, as I thought back on all the people who helped me become the young woman I am today, I thought of three: you among them. I am very thankful for the clear, direct, and honest feedback you always provided to me with the Ruff Draft student newspaper when I was a high school student and at The Edmond Sun. Your critiques were life-long lessons that have held their value for so many years since. I find myself repeating your words often as I begin mentoring others. I simply wanted to thank you -- for being an inspiration, and for being a truly great teacher. It didn't require a classroom to learn... watching your experience at work was all I needed for motivation."
