WORK
Values
I value courage and honesty. Through understanding my imperfections, I value the courage to become self-empowered as a means of strengthening my mind and body. This courage is witnessed through a personal practice of self-reflection to maintain my personal responsibility for improvement. I am committed to maintaining integrity in my work and life, striving to honestly evaluate qualities that I can improve. The skills I use to learn and develop myself stem from the concept that excellence is not an act; it is a habit. To build this habit, I push myself to work harder and reach past my conscious limits so I am better prepared to serve the needs of others.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how strong the man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
​
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt
