What is your greatest strength and how do you know? My greatest strength is probably my work ethic. I know this because once I set my mind to a task; I truly believe that I will do whatever it takes in order to successfully complete that task. I've had to work very physically demanding jobs in the past, and those are nearly impossible to succeed at unless your have a great work ethic. I am confident that I will be able to continue this work ethic during my time at turing.

How do you work best? I believe I work best in groups. I like being able to bounce ideas off of different people and absorb information from other people that I'm working with. I adhere to the old adage that "two heads are better than one". The better a team of co-workers can work together without friction, the better the entire project will be.

What is your greatest area of improvement? I could definitely use more improvement in my coding skills and acumen. I don't have

	On a website, what is the purpose of HTML code? It describes the structure of pages.

	What is the difference between an element and a tag? Each html element tells the broswer something about the information that sits between
	its opening and closing tags. elements are usually made up of two tags, opening and closing tags.

	What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you? Empathy plays a big role in my life because i was raised by my parents to treat others the way I would like to be treated. Being able to be self aware and also aware enough to notice and respond thoughtfully when someone is distressed will go a long way to help them calm down. It is important to be able to respond to people in a helpful, constructive manner versus a negative non helpful way. When I previously worked as a furniture mover I would always try to be empathetic towards the customers and treat their property like it was my own in order to maintain a positive relationship with them.

	How does empathy help you build better software? empathy can help you build better software because it can help you identify with your target audience better.
