Stuart Arthur Brown is a Pre-Sales Consultant, specializing in VDI. Stuart lives in Cheshire, a county in the north-west of the UK. He has worked in the Citrix reseller channel since the mid 90's, and has been involved with the design and project management of a number of shared and virtual desktop solutions.
Stuart first became aware of Citrix VDI-in-a-Box in 2011, and was hugely impressed with the functionality and simplicity that the product offered; so much so that he changed the focus of his business to become a VIAB solution reseller, working with organizations to help them to successfully implement the technology. Stuart's business, Vitalize Consultancy (http://www.vitalizeconsultancy.co.uk), is working with organizations to help them to make the right decisions with VDI, and can offer skilled consultants and a wide range of complimentary solutions.
I would like to thank my wife, Tamara, and my son, Henry, for their help, support, and encouragement for not only writing this book, but running my own business.

I'd like to thank my family for their sacrifices in enduring my years spent in consulting and sales engineering that have contributed to my technical and business expertise. They were instrumental and supportive through the years of my career spent mostly on the road and away from home. Without their support, I would not be where I am in my career now, and have the wonderful opportunities to provide expert reviews on works such as this one.
I would also like to thank all of the mentors I have had over the years, who have challenged and guided me to attaining the expertise I have today, and who have taught valuable professional and personal lessons along the way. From my professors at Lawrence University who taught me the foundations of how to think analytically, and how to creatively solve problems in the truest of liberal arts fashion, to my managers and mentors in technology who conferred vast knowledge of how to apply analytical thought from a Biology major to real world technical and business challenges. I thank you all. I would not have the opportunities I have today to lead, design, and be a mentor myself to the next generation of technologists who will follow in our footsteps.
