Thank you Emily for your patience, support and great advice towards the creation of this website. I would also like to thank those people at LBIS, especially Tom House, for helping me to figure out the web "code" that helped me design this site. Many thanks to Siobhan Fennessy who helped me along with these "comps" as well as my independent study.
