About Me

I'm a focused INTJ, always thinking about ways to improve myself and my surroundings. I know economics and politics and can bring a lot of brains to the table (I also bring honest opinions). I want to believe in the mission (especially at work) and be able to solve problems and think creatively every day. I'm looking for a dynamic workplace with people who get things done, one that values creativity on par with analytical skill.
