1. Clearly communicates purpose and vision2. Mentors and develops teammates for their growth3. Maintains effective work life balance

Balance is something that is really important to me, and especially balancing the ways that I interact with teammates. Would love to ensure that we're all "having fun" together (I.e. time well spent) vs just all about the job/delivering on a goal.

Epic work fails

I've stayed in co-founder relationships too long. No bueno for *anyone* 👎

What's the point if you aren't having fun?

Join in with the ride, I like trying new things too much!

They're at the heart of a lot of things I do. I have a tendency to play life on "hard" mode, and I wouldn't have it any other way. It's way more interesting that way!

What I'm like at work

ThoughtfulCreativeAnalyticalHard WorkingEnthusiastic

I work best with heads down time and work in spurts. Definitely need creative/cooling off periods. I prefer to have verbal back and forths than over slack/email.
