What is your greatest strength and how do you know?

My Pairin results showed that I am an "I 'Get' You" person. I think this result highlights my greatest strength: empathy. Empathy allows me to have stronger relationships with the people in my life because I can understand and relate to what they are feeling. Empathy also helps me to put myself in someone else's shoes and see issues from a different perspective. Most of the jobs I've had in my life have been customer-facing. I've worked at two public libraries, an art museum, and an elementary school. Empathy helped me to connect with people and diffuse conflicts in all of these positions.

How do you work best?

Although most of my jobs have been customer-facing, I think I am most productive by myself. I really enoy the moments where I'm fully immersed in the task at hand and because I can enter a state of flow. That level of concentration and productivity is harder for me to tap into when I'm surrounded by people. That being said, some of my best friend

What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?

I see empathy as the best tool in my toolkit, particularly when it comes to my personal relationships. If I'm having a disagreement with my partner, empathy is what allows me to take a step back and consider his side of things. I have also had several public-facing positions. I have worked at two very busy public libraries where I came accross a wide variety of customers. Empathy allowed me to give more compassionate help to our customers and to favor understanding over frustration in the more difficult interactions.

How does empathy help you build better software?

Empathy can help you build better software by inspiring you to think about features that might be helpful to others, even if they aren't necessarily helpful to you. For instance, the option to make text larger on a website isn't a feature that I need but it could vastly improve the experience for someone that is visually impaired. From what I've learned so far, I know that code
