The time, energy and effort of my work is dedicated to my hero, my friend, my dad, Michael G. Ingram. The kindest and most generous of people, you taught me to be honorable, respectful and fearless. You were always my biggest supporter and my greatest source of encouragement. Thank you for being a wonderful human being, father and an example of the kind of man that I hope to become. I will continue to fight the good fight to make you proud.

I also dedicate my work to my family and friends who have supported, encouraged and inspired me over the years. You know who you are. Thank you.
