About me
Project orientated, I like to see something through. Team orientated, I work really well in a team environment, but being project orientated I can pick something up and carry on on my own. I find many daywork opportunities for these qualities. I don´t mind someone younger than me being in charge, for me it´s about how much we can all learn together and I have learnt a lot from people half my age. I´m respectful toward people and work well in this atmosphere with like-minded teammates. I get a kick brainstorming to better situations or getting new ideas for almost anything, may it be coming up with some new decor or helping someone with fixing a blooper. I work well with different materials in the interior due to my experience and arranging anything on land is made easier due to speaking 3 languages fluently. I´ve been told to be much stronger than I look and if I can do something by myself, then I do so. I don´t drink or smoke and prefer to eat healthy.
