Message to all Spectrum Project performers and buddies: I am thankful to be a part of the Spectrum Project team this year, and to have Kevin, let me have a run with some of my ideas. This will be as much of a learning process for me as it will be fun. I am excited to see what we can create over the 9 weeks we are together. I hope you are excited to share your talents with us and help us make the project exactly what it is supposed to be. If there is one thing I have learned it is to embrace and trust the process. See you all in January.
