You are a detail-oriented person who is swift to break down complex problems into their constituent parts. You can go rapidly from solution sketch to fully-worked solution, communicating clear reasoning at each step. You take pride in your work. You are comfortable taking guiding principles and figuring things out on your own, and have the self-confidence to work in a quick and opinionated environment.
