Books have played a huge role in my own personal and professional growth over the years, and I continue to read at least two books every month to keep exposing myself to new ideas and inspiring material. Sandy Struss recommended reading
Currently Reading:

Special thanks to my friend Rich Anderson in Calgary who introduced me to this book, which I would classify as my #1 favorite non-fiction book of all time…

“The Audacity of Hope”
-Barack Obama
After seeing Barack Obama interviewed on Oprah, I was so impressed that I went the same day to pick up his book and read the whole thing cover-to-cover over the holidays. An inspired read indeed, and one that provides hope for politics in the future!
