When it comes to the completion of a project, the success of said project is measured by its quality. This means it's pleasing to the eye, is easy to use, and exceeds all expectations of functionality. Technology is at its greatest when you harness the power of art with science. This combination is the key to successful projects, and the diversity of my strongest skills allow me to create those projects.
Integrity is everything in this life, and I've witnessed people who climb the corporate ladder by crushing others in their path. Being human comes with its own imperfections, but wilfully hurting others to fulfill your own selfish desires is a plague upon humanity. Instead, lead by example and be humane toward others. Be honest, work hard, be a teamplayer, stand firm by those who really love you, and shine your light across the world. Sooner or later you're bound to come across people who appreciate those values.
Attack fear and adversity head on by creating your own strength. Pushing your mind and body to its limits challenges you to be greater in life. The above photo is of me from the fall of 2003. For years I competed in motocross racing so I never shied away from the adventurous outdoors. My love of action sports helped to build a strong and daring mentality within me. When you choose this type of hobby, you're ready to take risks, and push yourself to the max. This vastly improves your confidence, courage, and strength.
Being a leader doesn't mean you make difficult decisions to appease the higher-ups. Leadership is about helping others around you to grow and learn with the understanding that you are also forever learning and growing. A real leader follows altruistic beliefs and has empathy for others while still having a plan in place to deliver projects on time. Leaders are not as concerned about how they will look, but are more concerned about doing whatever they can to help others grow and succeed.
