Greg, it's been a pleasure travelling this path with you over the last five and a bit years, and I'm very glad you were were the one with the map and the machete to clear the way, particularly in the early days when there weren't as many people to help maintain the trails. You have truly reshaped the landscape to make it accessible for everyone.
Good luck in your new role at Shopify, and I look forward to the next time our paths cross! Thank you!
