My greatest strength, in my eyes, is my adaptability. I have always been the kind of person to actively seek to change situations that aren't working, or get out of those situations however I need to. I find that I work best in environments that have opportunities to be individual but also collaborative. I love working with people, but sometimes I really need the headroom to accomplish tasks on my own. I guess I like to talk through thoughts and concepts and implement those conversations in my own ways. I sometimes think that this should make me look like a very open, easy-going person, but I think that that is not always the case, and that I may be viewed at times as bored or smug. I hope to keep refining my organization skills and forward thinking because these are skills that are going to apply to my everyday life and will make my work-flow much more managable and consistent.

Empathy is one of the backbones to my moral structure. Everyone comes from a different place and that needs to be acknowleged. Empathy has given me the mindset to respect not only others, but also myself, which I think is something that isn't talked about enough. It's foresight to see what someone else might be going through, this is advantageous on many fronts, including working on a team or talking to strangers on the street. It helps in development because something that is often not thought about outside of this industry is accessibility. There are a TON of deaf or blind internet users and they should have access to the internet also. One of the biggest moments where empathy in a team setting has helped me was when I was working very closely with a pregnant woman. There were intense mood swings and freak outs, but I was always able to approach all of it with a level head because I knew that there was pain going on that I could never understand. It changes you, and subsequen

Pairin tells me that I'm an 'intuitive-conceptual' thinker, that I'm a 'maverick' with an 'I get you' attitude that 'loves wisdom and knowledge'. I think it can be bizarre letting a website tell me who I am, but I can see how it helps to have a diving board, so I'll bite.
Currently that means that I'm flexing my 'lover of wisdom and knowledge' muscle. In 10, shockingly short, weeks I have done things, technically, that I had no idea were even concepts. Socially, I'm a lot less awkward and afraid of not knowing something.
Writing a third act at this point in time would be an excercise in futility. I have no idea what I'm even looking for right now, I'm not going to attempt to gaze into a crystal ball.
I came to Turing because I felt that I had ticked most of the boxes that I needed to in my previous career, and I wanted to invest my time into something else that I have been passionate about for awhile. It wasn't a hard leap for me. I love change and the thought of never having to go back to where I was be
