Personal characteristics

I am taking a break between studies in order to ground myself with solid foundations in the city. I am majoring in Sociology and Religion; this reflects what I find most interesting. I also have an avid interest in the way in which society is structured and in how this interfaces with our individual personality traits and characteristics (the foundation of sociology). I find that this way of thinking allows me to work jobs on either end of the managerial spectrum, whether working the land on the ground as part of the team, or working with the broader outlook needed for managing the team and the farm itself, as an example.

I am a person who seeks to learn, and constantly expand my knowledge bank and my understanding of the world in which I find myself. I am flexible in the way in which I go about work and personal interests, allowing me to enjoy a wide range of activities and to adapt effectively to a wide range of jobs and positions. I have a deep commitment to social justice and to maintaining the integrity and wellbeing of the planet and those with whom we share it.
