​

Dear Tina - I was a shy 10 year old when I met you. You helped me find a way out of my shell and sparked the self-confidence which I utilize every day. My life would honestly not have been the same if I hadn't met you and worked with you. You are an inspiration, a mentor, and a shining star. Lots of love,
