Acknowledgement

There are so many people that I want to thank for their support in writing this book. Without their skills, forethought, support, and expertise I would never have been able to write this book on my own.

I would like to thank my beautiful wife Tasha and our three children, Lauren, Cameron, and Jocelyn, my parents Fred and Sandra and step-parents Mitch and Dora. I also wish to thank Carl, Jennifer, and Megan. But most of all, I want to thank Tim, Lisa and Ashley for putting up with me, helping me watch my kids, and helping me find the time to write this book. To everyone, I could not have done this without you—all of you! I love you all!

I also want to thank all of my colleagues and friends. There are too many to name, but I wish to thank; Stacey F., Mason G., Dave "DJ" M., David S., Ernst S., Jim K., Derek M., Steve M, Jacques A, Joe M, Joe P, Rhys R, Debbie W, Brian Z, every member of the SpiceCorps of Central Florida, and the entire Packt Publishing team. I know that I missed a bunch of you, but you know who you are!

For my brothers in Christ; Daniel Hopper, Glenn Stewart, Phillip Kochanski, and Milan Thaker. Thank so much for loaning me equipment and giving me advice on some of the topics in this book. Also, a special shout-out to Dan Williams at Meraki. May God bless you and your families!

But above all, I thank our almighty God. He has given me a gift to share with the world so that I can glorify only Him. None of the knowledge and none of the skills that I have been blessed with come from myself. They all are a gift from God! It is my desire to serve only Him, the Everlasting one, the most High, and the most holy. Amen!
