Summary

I go into every situation with a quiet confidence and patience. This has proven to serve me in each of my areas of work. While a member of EC-SAR, we were put in very stressful situations often where confidence was key, and while providing cello lessons I had to be confident in my abilities as well as having the patience to teach a new student.
