Niki about himself
I am married to Mette with whom I have two daugthers. Both Mette and I grew up in Odense, but have lived in Hadsund the last nine years. Our surname is due to the fact that I am half Greek. However, my Greek is very limited.
My strengths are:
- I am positive by nature and hardly breakable.
- I am good at comprehending complex situations and finding simple concrete solutions to problems.
- I am curios, I desire to learn and I am aware of developing my skills.
- I am open-minded.
My weaknesses are:
- I may lapse into perfectionism.
- I am not good at letting go of responsibilities and therefore sometimes I take on too many tasks.
- I work too much.
