Throughout my life in academia, I have had the fortune to meet and work with some remarkable people. Each one in his or her own way has helped shape my understanding of what being an academic means. The qualities and values I now consider important (passion, generosity, curiosity, honesty, empathy, and a healthy sense of humour) have all been embodied in those people.
