It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these “Recently” posts, so I thought I’d take a moment to capture what’s been occupying my time and thoughts lately.

Work

I’ve been settling into my role as a Managing Consultant at Brite, where I’m leading Salesforce implementations for clients across various industries. It’s been exciting to dive deep into complex CRM strategies and guide cross-functional teams towards innovative solutions.

Reading

I’ve been on a bit of a non-fiction kick lately:

• “The Pragmatic Programmer” by David Thomas and Andrew Hunt - A classic that I’m revisiting. It’s amazing how much of this advice remains relevant two decades later.
• ”Atomic Habits” by James Clear - I’m always looking for ways to optimize my routines, and this book has provided some valuable insights.
• ”The Phoenix Project” by Gene Kim - A novel about IT, DevOps, and business management that’s surprisingly engaging.
• ”Never Enough” by Andrew Wilkinson - An insightful exploration of ambition, success, and the pursuit of “enough” in the context of entrepreneurship and life satisfaction.

Listening

My love for melodic house music continues, I’ve been particularly enjoying:

• Colorscapes Volume 6
• DJ Kicks by Disclosure
• Cascade by Floating Points
• Desire by Dosem

Learning

• Diving deeper into Salesforce Data Cloud
• Expanding my knowledge of Salesforce Marketing Cloud

Watching

• ”KAOS” (Netflix) - A modern take on Greek mythology with a dark, comedic twist.
• ”Industry” Season 3 (HBO) - Continuing to follow the high-stakes world of international finance with its intense character dynamics.
