I have put a lot of thought into this, but starting to realize that its probably best to just be straightforward in who I am so that its clear whether I am a good fit for you. These are the six things that came to mind:
First, humility. I grew up in a very humble family and I value others who demonstrate humility despite their circumstances.
Second, ambition. I am a very ambitious person. I want the best in life for myself and for my future family. I work very hard at trying to improve myself and being respected for what I do.
Third, challenges. I have been climbing mountains all my life. Normal for me is having both physical and intellectual challenges. This is a must in my life.
Fourth, passive. I am a passive person, meaning I do not try to be the center of attention. With that said, I do what needs to be done. If I need to be the center of attention, I will play that role.
Fifth, professionalism. As a professional, I am respectful, diplomatic, dependable, hard-working, analytical, a problem-solver, and very resourceful. I apply these character traits sometimes in my personal life as well.
Sixth, family. I come from a very large family, and although born in the US, we love the Mexican family traditions and values.
