HUGEE shoutout to my big brother Lester! Thank you for always supporting me and urging me to go for more. Golden hair brothers for life. Props to my Pops and Mom, Kerr Evangelista and Allison Chueng for believing in our line and showing us lots of unconditional love (even though we were a bunch of savages at times). Another HUGE shoutout to my Educator, Ken Yap, for teaching us the valuable lessons that shaped us into fine gentlemen of KAPPA PI BETA. Not only were you a fantastic mentor, but an irreplaceable motivation figure. I am also grateful to all the brothers KAPPA PI BETA for sacrificing their time in order to help me throughout the process. Lastly…SHOUT OUT TO MY LINE BROTHERS, WE DID IT!! We went through hell and lost our way but by motivating and pushing each other, we were able to bounce right back up and continue forward. Thanks for being a bunch of savagely funny dudes, y’all the best, love you lots line!

My brothers are the best leaders and they believed in me at times when I had given up. Now, I know that I must believe in myself at all times through success and failure because that is what ultimately shapes who we are. I would like to shout out my class dad for always having our back. He believed in us and didn’t baby us, which in turn made us use our resources and grow stronger as brothers. Shout out to my program educator. He believed in us when all of our hope was fading. He knew we had potential and taught us valuable lessons that will continue to grow us as extraordinary leaders. Finally, my big has been a great mentor to me and despite his lengthy assignments, I preserved. I have developed into a better leader and brother and we will continue to grow one another in the years to come.

First, I would l would like to thank my big bro Lester. He was always there for me and always motivated and believed in me. He inspired me to take charge and taught me leadership skills with his experience as president. I would like to also thank our Class Dad, Kerr for all his motivation and encouragement. He never gave up on us and pushed us to improve ourselves and become more confident. I would like to give huge props to our Program Educator, Ken Yap. You taught us so well and inspired us to become true gentlemen. You were strict and kind and taught us lessons that I will keep with me for the rest of my life. I would also like to give props to all the actives for also helping us learn the lessons. Most of all I would like to thank my line. They were strangers to me at first and I was shy with them mostly but now they are like my family and I know will always be there for me no matter what. They were my biggest support through the process and I love them. We have accomplished so much and made history together.

I’d like to thank my line for being a great support system. I know there were times I could be frustrating to deal with and hard to work with, but thank you for sticking it through with me. I promise I’ll try hard to not forget things and remember directions better. Thank you Big for always taking me out to eat and being a great example of what a role model should be. You are talented in so many areas and I hope to be as motivated and as hard working as you. Props to pops for always making sure all of us are doing well and keeping in constant contact. Thank you to all the actives that put countless hours into teaching us the lessons that we will forever hold dear.
