Dedications

I would like to dedicate this book to my lovely wife, Jeannette, and my two beautiful children, Hannah and Derek, who have inspired and supported me throughout the development of this book.

I also dedicate this book to my father, Jose, and to the memory of my mother, Generosa. Without their knowledge, wisdom, and guidance, I would not have the goals that I strive to achieve today.

I would like to dedicate this book to the memory of my father, Raymond Muniz. He never saw me graduate from college or accomplish great things, such as writing this book. I would also like to apologize to him for dropping out of soccer in high school. I picked it back up later in life, and today play in at least two competitive matches a week. Your hard work paid off. Hopefully you somehow know that.

—Joseph Muniz
