Motivation
I am not a simple person, I am large; in stature and
heart, intricate and a deeper thinker than I would
sometimes like to admit. I am thorough and
meticulous, sometimes bordering on being a pedant.
My fascination with technology stems from a deep
seated passion for everything that seeks to do a task
better and differently, as well as a deep seated
nerdiness to fiddle and figure out how things work. I
despise ‘doing something the way it’s always been
done’, because I believe there is always a better way
to do anything, similarly I don’t follow crowds and do
something in a specific way because everyone else is
doing it.
I am not a person who reads manuals, I am far more
interested in figuring it out on my own and trying new
and innovative ways of doing that which has already
been done. I am obsessed with learning absolutely
anything from anatomy to physics, literature to art,
and absolutely everything technology related.
Economics and accounting I would rather skip.
I love people and working in teams has always
brought out the best in me. Due to my aforementioned
large heart, not physically (it’s not a health issue), I am
very accepting of criticism of my work, as I view it as
an opportunity to learn and grow from my mistakes.
I am a creative at heart, and I use writing as an outlet
for the many weird and wonderful ideas that occur in
my mind. I love stories and read as much science
fiction and fantasy as I can get my hands on.
