portunities to work with him on group projects and assignments, but it wasn’t luck responsible for those, I did
everything I could to make sure I had him on my team. Scott isn’t satisfied with the gimme answers, and regularly
challenges conventional thought. He is an enormously talented creative thinker. On many occasions Scott single

am going to continue to look for opportunities to work with Scott both academically and professionally.”
