Karla Castle
Librarian in Shanghai, China
I am a librarian and well suited to it. I am a strategist and pragmatist. I am into ideas, planning, and future possibilities. I value intelligence, knowledge, and competence. I am objective, adaptable, deliberate, and into long range thinking. I understand new ideas quickly and am driven to apply them in a useful way. I am terrible at office politics. I have this crazy notion of being on an equal playing field and that what is important is to do my job well. When I offer you a solution to a problem, it is my A plan. I have thought it through and think it is the best path to take. My brain is starving for information. I have a need to know new stuff, do new things, go new places. This is why I read and travel.
