MISCELLANUOUS

Gallup Strengths Finders: Three of my five strengths are in the Strategic Thinking category.

Myers Briggs: ENTP stands for Extraverted, iNtuition, Thinker, and Perceiving.

ENTPs are creative, innovative, logical and seeking new ideas and ways of problem solving. I like to listen to other people’s perspectives, interact with a variety of people, be flexible and be open minded.
