Dr. TYLER SEIBERT, PhD

He did it!!! On May 26, 2011 Tyler successfully defended his PhD in front of family, friends and his committee. I am so SO so SO SO proud of him!! We're one step closer to being done with school and moving on to the next part of our lives! He worked HARD. Like, SERIOUSLY hard. He completed 5 publications in a record 3 years, it's pretty much unheard of to complete that caliber of work in that short a time span. Of course there were bumps along the way, but Tyler took them in stride and busted it out, especially the last few months where he worked 18 hour days almost every single day to get it done!

Congratulations Tyler! And Nina for seeing him through this far! I can't imagine how hard it's been. I barely survived Jeff's 4 undergrad years and I'm scared to death of the 4 he's going to do part-time just to get a master's. We aren't even daring to go any further than that. I'd go insane! You guys are so brave!
