Summary
I am consistently growing and take the time to continue learning even though it's not a direct requirement of the job. I find that many times, my professional growth is based on what I study, both directly and indirectly related to work. I want to be judged by individual performance and rewarded for my efforts based on my ability to execute. I am modest, hard-working and consistently set firm goals for myself. Then, once I've defined my benchmarks, I take the necessary steps to achieve those milestones. I work very well under pressure and can handle working alone or with a team. The goal is always my finishline
