bio

Quite so often, many ask , how would you describe yourself? And as soon as I get asked, I chuckle a bit. I chuckle because the first thing that comes to mind is that honestly I would say I am a bit crazy. Yes, I know crazy sounds like I am Harley Quinn (the Jokers wife) but in this particular situation I would describe crazy as extremely enthusiastic. I am always positive, full of humor, personality and very social. I am a peoples person, continually making new friends, talking to new people and taking on new challenges.

The best way to describe my own personality ( I doubt my peers would agree), is that I am an extroverted introvert, which in turn makes my views ambivalent. I like to analyze and see all sides to each and every situation, making sure that my decisions are fair, balanced and above all equal in every aspect.

I am a creative soul, my mind is constantly working on overload. Thinking of new bright ideas, googling random things at odd hours in the early mornings and finding new ways to enhance and make my brand standout. I have a curious mind which in turn always makes me out to be a discoverer, I always want to know how others are thinking, various taboos, what is happening in the world today and what has happened in the past.

Lastly I am a detailed hard-worker, a fierce independent individual but always a team player that you would love to have on your team.
