Hey Sydney!
Congratulations on graduation! I remember you would hang out with the folks in my Creating New Works class before it started and it was clear that you had forged strong friendships with your peers in your time at Emory! Congratulations on the teaching aid job this summer, and good luck as you make your way as an actor in Atlanta and beyond!
Best,
Tom Zhang
