About the Author
I would like to thank my wife and best friend Tasha for allowing me to take on this life changing opportunity for the second time around. Without her understanding and support I do not think it could have all happened. She is truly my life’s motivation. Also, wish to thank my wonderful daughters, London and Rio, for bringing so much joy to our lives. Thank you to my mother and father for cultivating the technical spirit within me from a very early age (that Commodore 64 was definitely my springboard…LOL).I would also like to thank my coworker and fellow architect Kevin Jackson for providing me with the courage to take on this project. I also wish to give deep thanks and gratitude to all of my mentors over the years I have had the privilege to work for and with. Those individuals include David Bartlett, Tyrone Paige, Steve Contrabasso, and Mike Childress. Their multitude of great advice has allowed me to be where I am today.
