I am deeply grateful for all the people that got me here. There are too many people to thank, but chief among them are my advisors Serguei Saavedra, @bio_diverse, @FortinMJ, Jonathan Levine, and the ever-supportive group members.
@Chuliang_Song @FortinMJ Many congratulations, Chuliang. It is a constant joy and intellectual rocket ride collaborating with you. You are forging new paths for ecology. Looking forward to seeing your lab grow.
@bio_diverse @FortinMJ Thank you for the kind words and all the countless great advice you gave me (both scientifically and professionally)!
