Look, this is very un-British of me to say so bluntly, but I’m a catch. People who work with me are generally delighted, whether as colleagues, managers, or customers. I have an ease with words, a quick path to witty jokes, and the uncanny ability to put my finger on adept analyses of problems you quite possibly didn’t even know you were trying to solve.
I also speak several languages fluently, have never met software I couldn’t make sense of, can be succinct or detailed as the situation requires, and am excellent at helping people make sense of relating to other human beings.
I’m a natural leader and public speaker, a data-driven analytical problem-solver, and can quickly understand the emotions and motivations of those I interact with. I’m a snappy writer, an eagle-eyed editor, and a great at-a-glance tester with a super-ability to verbalise nuanced UI/UX feedback on digital products.
I can execute on projects, rally teams, drive cross-functional collaboration and alignment, improve processes, and make ambitious things happen in a way that satisfies every stakeholder. My biggest flaw is that I might enthusiastically try to finish a sentence or two before you’ve finished talking, but I’m self aware enough to keep this neurodiversity symptom in check most of the time.
If you absolutely must see my résumé, it is here. But I’m already quietly judging you for clicking, because we both know that’s hardly the best way to get a feel for someone. And in case you’re curious, I’m an INFJ, which allegedly means I seem like a born extrovert yet secretly crave alone time to decompress. (And I’m an Aries on the cusp of Pisces with Cancer rising, and I was born in the year of the Rooster, and my mother never shuts up about how high my IQ was as a child, and I fully recognise that none of this matters in the slightest.)
If you want to get a read on me for professional purposes, please reach out and ask me to coffee. (Don’t judge me for drinking decaf; without it I can’t sleep!)
