I wish to thank my mother, Evelyn, for everything, and my father, Jim, my sister, Patti, and my brother, Ken, for having launched me on this journey in life. To my partner, Maggie, may we have many years of mutual encouragement together. I wish to thank Dr. Kubota, of the University of Kentucky, for believing in me, for giving me a start in the computer industry, and for all the other students he nurtured in the same way. I am grateful to the Node.js core team members and the programming platform they've created.
