Who am I?

Hi, I'm Katie O'Connor. Although I was born in Boston, I moved to North Palm Beach, Florida when I was just three years old, and it is what I call "home". My days in Florida are filled with lying in the sun on the beach, which I live less than a mile from. I am going to be the chief marketing officer of a large company. I plan to achieve this goal by starting to connect myself to the marketing world now through info sessions and company visits. I am like my mom in the sense that we are both caring, driven, and love to shop. Differently, I am like my dad in the sense that he was extremely generous and had a great sense of humor, while I, too, love to give back to the community and am considered the "clown" of my friend group. However, I am unlike my parents because my mom is more organized than I am and my dad was very assertive and courageous, which I struggle with sometimes. If I were being honest, I would admit that my expectations for myself have been predominantly driven by my parents. However, since moving over 2000 miles away, I have become much more independent, and have learned to develop my own expectations for myself, without my parents' influence. I look up to my roommate Michel because she is the most caring and selfless person I have ever met. In addition to being the person I can always lean on, she has encouraged me to go outside of my comfort zone and live life to the fullest. If I were a wild animal I would be a wolf because I like to surround myself with people I'm comfortable with, but I also enjoy spending time alone and taking a break. When I was eight years old I was walking in the woods with my friends in Cape Cod when I fell directly onto a bunch of poison ivy. As a result, my arms, legs, and face were covered in red dots, which itched for days. My sun sign is Cancer. My moon sign is Leo. My rising sign is Cancer.
