I have been paragliding three times in two continents and I have intentions to make it to the rest.

Ideal Workplace Values

Empathetic, patient, employee focused regardless of rank or tenure. I would like the workplace to be activity embracing of all forms of diversity, including diversity of thinking styles and invisible disabilities.

Skills and Strengths

My Neuro-exceptional talent

My OCD and Anxiety provide me with a keen eye for looking ahead at a project plan or concept and identifying areas of risk that need to be mitigated. I need support in actually figuring out the full mitigation strategy, but when people listen to me calling out "red flags" upfront, it can help save time and errors down the line. Also, with my keen attention to detail, I am good at reviewing other people's written work.
