Summary
I have experience working in high-stakes, high-pressure environments, where my greatest strength is my ability to stay cool under pressure and focus on the task at hand. I've taught students, coached players, joined projects... I am used to joining a team, discovering what role I need to fill, and adapting to fill that role.
