A bit about my character
Regarding my character, recently a Disc test indicated me as an IS style. A warm and sociable person who reaches out to others with a friendly, laid-back approach. I tend to view everyone as a potential friend, open communication style often puts others at ease.
Since I enjoy cooperating with others, I am drawn to projects where I can collaborate, I will do my best to ensure everyone has a chance to contribute and be recognized.
