I can truly say you’re in the right field. From the time you were a wee lad, running to the piano to recreate the songs you were listening to, your passion and talent were unmistakable.
You’re a gifted young man, and I’m so proud of everything you’ve accomplished. I can’t wait to see you continue to shine in your chosen path. Your future is bright, and you’re heading toward it doing what you love — as the saying goes:
"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."
Go, young Bison — it’s your time to roam. Let us hear you thunder. 🦬⚡
