One of my professors in Graduate school gave me the sincerest compliment ever, “Once you see Zlatko’s last name you can’t forget it, erase it or delete it, it may take you a long time to pronounce it, but you are not unseeing it.” I remember the importance of the compliment, the laughter we had during that seminar, and obviously the memory to remind myself that sometimes a little uniqueness goes a long way in the kindest, nicest, and most pleasant of ways ✍️🏻🎓🥷👨🏻🏫🇺🇸
