My Bookshelf
I've always appreciated the art of a good book recommendation. Check out the list below for some of the books, podcasts, and social media accounts I've been learning from recently.
Note - Some of these books I have read personally, some of them have been read and recommended to me by friends and colleagues, and some I've heard about and bookmarked for my own future reading list.
