It’s our responsibility and our privilege to care for this incredibly unique and special planet we call home. I thrive on challenge, change, collaboration and growth.Working on issues that will not be resolved in my lifetime is my calling. Developing trusted, long-term relationships is one of my keys to success. I believe positive, enduring relationships can only be built on a foundation of transparency, honesty and trust. I embrace challenging conversations and situations and don’t shy away from difficulty.Top 5 Strengths on Clifton StrengthsFinder: Activator, Relator, Significance, Achiever, Command.Core Values: Growth, Discovery, Ownership, Connection, Authenticity, Wellness.Enneagram 3:\"The Warrior of Accomplishment\"Myers Briggs: E(extroverted-68%) I(intuitive-62%) F(feeling-60%) J(judging-60%) A (assertive-64%) DiSC: I, D.
