About you
You can write English fit for publication with little effort. You know how to "simplify then exaggerate" to produce compelling stories in written form. You enjoy seeing your name "in print".
You love learning, and get bored with repetitive job roles quickly. You're curious about how all kinds of things work and interact with each other. You prefer to find tools and automation systems for solving repetitive tasks. You feel a strong sense of ownership of your work, and feel restless when tasks are blocked or delayed. You pay attention to using your time efficiently because you know your own potential and resent inefficiency.
You are emotionally intelligent and able to read people well enough to sometimes influence the course of their thinking. You recognise the psychological power of words upon yourself and others, and deploy language thoughtfully in professional communications.
You recognise that code is law, and have enough understanding to manipulate HTML, CSS, and Javascript snippets. You enjoy the power that nurturing software skills gives you.
