  • Open and collaborative: Our team is close-knit and supportive and we're working with a lot of unknowns. You must be a champion of team environments that are comfortable and encouraging.
  • Optimistic and resilient: Dig in and figure out how to work around problems. Exemplify a "Yes and why not?" posture. Takes care of self and team. Balance needed to maintain stamina and positivity.
  • Ego-less: We all wear the hats that need wearing, it's a mentality that makes the team successful.
