I'm independent and analytical, thriving on hands-on experiences and problem-solving. Most often people may see me as outgoing, but I'm naturally observant and selective with my energy, preferring meaningful conversations over surface-level chatter.

I am glad this program has highlighted my strengths and weaknesses. ๐Ÿ’—Learning about my personality has made me understand myself and others better, realizing that we are all different in nature and we should embrace being who we are! I am proud to be an ENTJ.

Melvin Kavogoi

MBTI: ISFJ-T (Defender)

I have a keen eye for detail and excellent memory which allows me to anticipate and meet others' needs, often before they even realize what they require. I find deep satisfaction in creating stability and comfort for my loved ones, approaching life with a grounded, responsible attitude. My sensitivity to others' emotions is both a blessing and a challenge, allowing me to form deep, meaningful connections while learning to balance caring for others with self-care.
