I love to interact with my coworkers, and to get to know everyone personally! I truly enjoy team building and planning events for everyone to relax outside of work! I think a part of being a good employee is to also have an amazing work environment, and I want to help build that. I believe that my work ability and what I produce is a representation of who I am, so I will always put forth my full effort to every task. I do not seek any type of praise, that actually makes me uncomfortable- I'd prefer to have acknowledgement that you are satisfied with what I have to offer. I am quick witted and extremely resourceful! I like to solve issues quickly and effectively. I find myself able to solve issues with some ingenuity, I credit that to my right-sided brain. I play a-lot of video games and that really helped with being able to problem solve with what's in front of you. I'm a super fun co-worker and I am completely free of judgment! I would love my team to come to see me not only as a coworker but as a friend.

I am working to improve my effective work life balance. Although I do preach that it is very important to have a good balance to prevent burn out, I find myself constantly thinking about work. I am anxiously waiting for my next assignment and ways to effectively complete each task. I am working hard on trying to enjoy vacation time without the need to check my emails and my phone. I would also like to improve on my personal and professional growth. I feel that my current position I am stagnant but comfortable, and because of my loyalty- it has prevented me from growing. I'm working on this by trying to seek opportunities where it allows me to grow professionally and personally.

My empathy is my super power. I think it helps with working with others and in stressful situations. I am able to understand how a person feels and to help comfort them. While working in a fast paced environment there can be times of huge tension and stress. I understand how the stress can redirect into frustration when giving directions, or assignments. I never take any criticism personally and try to help calm my coworkers. I like to provide solutions to reassure them that these issues can be fixed.
