Acknowledgments

Many people contributed directly and indirectly to this effort. I am grateful for their thoughtful insights. I thank Adaobi Obi Tulton and Jim Minatel for their incredible patience, understanding, and support throughout the writing process. They have made the writing process so much easier.

By the time this book is published, I will be married to Laura — my fiancée of two years and the love of my life. I am looking forward to spending the rest of my life with you. Thank you for your love, support, encouragement, and your belief in me.

No dream was ever too big for him. Of course, I have not won the Nobel Peace Prize, but the fact that I am writing this acknowledgement means that one of my dreams did come true — to write a book.

I also want to acknowledge the best mom in the world. She is the best listener, and the most compassionate and loving mother. Thanks for unconditionally listening to all that I have to say even when none of it made sense. She is also a fantastic cook. One day we will create a cookbook together.
