Christopher Cordova

I am an individual who graduates toward challenging activities with high skill ceilings that demand quick adaptability I enjoy understanding and exploring what it takes to improve at a task, streamline my process, and achieve the next level Many of these tasks require soft skills as well, both in extremely cooperative and competitive settings Some examples are broken down into categories below, with breakdowns of skill relevancy

Media-

Music and media, production I play guitar, mostly metal but have a wide range of influences that round out my suite of skills I also have hard skills in multimedia production software, and have soft skills in networking and interpersonal relations like communication, time management, and leading a team from various backgrounds and skillsets to a common goal, and producing a tangible product from a concept These interests push and highlight creativity, finding solutions quickly to vague and complex issues, and an ability to familiarize myself quickly with concepts or tools I may not have had experience with before to maximize efficiency

Fitness-

I've always carried an interest in martial arts, and come from a background that blends TKD, forms of classical kung fu and MMA I also participated in professional training, and small-circuit bouts

These interests drive me to measure my skills against others not just in those settings, but in any where skills can be learned and built This creates a drive to improve, whether it's personal fitness or my skills at work It also drives me to understand conflict, conflict resolution, communication, and understanding people and where they may be mentally and how I might effectively communicate ideas with the least amount of friction or misunderstanding

Culinary-

Culinary has always been part of my background I enjoy making meals and serving others, and finding new, innovative ways to create flavors and create memories I often center events or meetups around themes and flavors, to create a lasting impression I am drawn to a wide variety of cuisines, but love proteins, sauces and sushi

These interests not only often require a lot of attention to detail and a delicate touch at a high level, but require quick execution, near uniformity in production at scale, and the ability to stay calm under pressure Time management is essential, along with the ability to communicate ideas and concepts quickly in a high-pressure, high-volume environment as efficiently as possible

Games media-

In my free time, I play games or build pc multimedia skills when I can A highlight of these interests is a deep interest in fighting games These applications have an extemely high skill ceiling and are very, very competitive, fostering personal drive and a need to expand and understand skills and tools better, especially under pressure It requires a lot of time investment to produce any meaningful, replicable skill and an understanding of the shifting factors underneath that may affect my suite of tools and skillset over time, as the interactions and relevant data are often shifted on a very short basis, frequently from month to month This, along with my other interests, means I am constantly working on my adaptability
