"My parents were both career professionals in finance and taught me the principles of financial responsibility early on. Yet, I was always an environmental activist ever since I was young, and I taught them the value of sustainability. As a professional, I feel strongly that both of these spheres are intermingled, and this is the direction I have taken my career. As you can see from my cover letter and resume, I bring a lot of experience, and my goal is to work with an organisation whose priorities, culture and values complement mine. Also, I felt the career growth available to me in my current role is more limited and would take my career in a direction that might lead to some stagnation and career dissatisfaction. So this, being a priority, has led me to follow a more sustainable career path, and that path has led me here."
