To my Idols,
Forever I am in awe of you. The power that you hold and exude as you perform is palpable.
Every year I take some time after Dayton to reflect, and every year I find myself extremely grateful that I get to do this, and that I get to do it for such an amazing group of individuals.
Seeing all of you inspires me to be better at what I do, and it is truly my greatest honor to witness you inspire all of the younger members around you. You stand now in the shoes that they will fill one day, and AQ will continue to improve because being inspired by you pushes them to be even better.
I am beyond proud of you for making top ten. You deserve it, and we all knew that.
And to the age outs,
10 of you have been around for my entire time working for Quest. I would be remiss if I didnβt acknowledge how impactful all of you have been. And to all 17 of you, thank you for choosing Atlanta Quest as your last.
Every single one of will live within the Q legacy forever now, (donβt worry, I made sure of it, photographic evidence for the win.)
Thank you for trusting me to do what I do. I wouldnβt want to do it for anyone but you.
See ya around,
ZS :) πΊπ€
