Summary
The truth is that I am individual who is adaptable and reliable to my team. Being a teammate with a proven track record in warehouse organization and healthy connection connection building I can say I'm ready to do it again. Wanting to excel in leading teams and mastering the use of constructive criticism sparks room for inner improvement which links with another spot where providing the best I can is what will be given . Seeing myself as someone who feels empathy and shares sympathy to others allows me to focus on the big picture of fulfilling the collectives needs, even thyself.

Interests
I love to meditate, and feel comfortable enough to get out of my bubble as well as be able to get close with others
As an occasional overthinker I get out of my head with mindfulness practices such as massages, soundbowl, meditation and yoga
Soccer lights a fire in my heart and brings me mind to peace Playing it passively with my close ones brings the feeling of fulfillment and playing it competitively drives me to be the best I can at what I do
Hiking and rockclimbing also have a spot in my heart
When its time to relax and or de stress I sit in the sun and feel my senses & body to accept and let go of what i need to
Most importantly I just love to put effort at what I do to and be involved as much as I can to help whoever needs it Peoples happiness= my Bliss
