FI
RST AND FOREMOST I NEED TO THANK
my
lovely wife Ammie. Without her patience and support
none of this would be possible. I also need to thank my daughters, Raven and Anna, for putting up
with Daddy’s late nights and crazy schedule.
I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge my coworkers at both Pragmatic Works and Pluralsight.
Working with so many technical experts has both challenged and inspired me to continually strive
for technical excellence.
Finally, I need to thank you, all of you in the SQL community. Thanks for reading my blog, my
books, for listening to me when I present in person and on video. It’s all of you wonderful folks in
the community that infuse me with the passion to learn, teach, and share.
