      "--- Some of my greatest strengths are in my observational skills, I'm very observant in my day-to-day life, as well as in a work environment. I notice change rather quickly and have been told I'm very perceptive. Within the world of customer service, it also pays to have excellent communication skills- written and oral. I'm also a fast learner, and very determined when I put my mind to something. Last but not least, I'm always keen on learning new things, and in the world of science, you can never know enough."
