"These books have helped shape my strategic thinking, inspired me to create new work and purposefully approach projects and relationships with collaborators and colleagues in new ways."

To call out a few of them: "Power: Why Some Have It and Others Don’t" by Stanford professor Jeffrey Pfeffer, has given me incredible insights into how to leverage my skills, talent, and relationships to create work that matters. There is a fine line between creativity and chaos and because I feel that I often veer close to crossing that line, "Messy: The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives" by Tim Harford has been very self-affirming. I’ve also begun to read "Quiet: The Power of Introversion in a World that Can’t Stop Talking" by Susan Cain. As an introvert and former woman in science, I appreciate how she expertly weaves neuroscience, anecdotes, and advice on how to harness the power of being an introvert."
