I am skilled at coaching others and lead by example. I frequently coach my peers on application of new technical skills, navigating complex processes, and communicating with difficult or hard-to-understand people. I know that success is a moving target, and maintaining relevancy requires a life-long commitment to learning, continuous improvement, with honest and direct communication. Like a good sports coach, I plan meticulously and pay great attention to detail, but I understand that learning and teaching requires providing an optimal environment and opportunities for others to practice and prepare.
