My greatest strength is my desire to seek truth and knowledge, to learn and grow as a person. I have aways had an innate desire to know all I can about everything I find myself passionate about. It is this drive that allows me to incorporate knowledge gained into who I am and truly understand it. I also enjoy learning from other people and folding other techniques I see as valuable into my own practices. I work best by bouncing ideas off of other people, even just talking out loud about what I'm doing. If I can limit my distractions and surround myself with intelligent people I can work at peak performance. Using my company as a sounding board has consistently proved to help round out my ideas and overall thought process. Always excited to hear the thoughts and opinions of the perspectives I place value in. I constantly need to work on being more proactive in my life and making time for everything important. I know I can end up taking on more at once than I can probably handle and end up unnessecarily busy. Knowing this its easy enough to avoid getting more on my plate than I can handle. Using checklists has been the best way to make sure there isn't too much on my list and my time stays budgetted appropritately. I hope to use my imaginative nature and desire to stand out as the fuel for my web design. Combined with my want to reach out to people and my pursuit of knowledge I believe my career as a developer will be deeply satisfying. I see how the tech industry is providing new ways to connect people to one another and I'm excited to be a part of it.
