This is my third book, and I find myself consistently underestimating how much time it takes to write these things. I have to extend a big thanks to Brian for helping bring this book to completion. Without his help, I don’t think I could have done this.
My family is the most important part of my life, and I want to thank Jennifer, Aidan, and Tanner for supporting and inspiring me, even though I spend way too many hours working. I love you all.

I would like to thank Eric for bringing me on board to write this book. Without his support and trust, I would not have received this wonderful opportunity.
My Mom and Dad have provided years of support and encouragement. I appreciate everything you have done for me, and I love you both very much. Without you I would not be where I am today.
And Grandpa, you are in my heart and prayers every day. You would be so proud. I wish you were here to see this.

We both want to thank our editor, Mike Loukides, for helping mold this book into reality. An infinite amount of thanks goes to the tech reviewers: Kyle Cordes, Kevin Stanley, Bob Lee, Brian Button, Mark Volkmann, Mario Aquino, Mike Clark, Ara Abrahamian, and Derek Lane.
