Chloe didn’t want to write an About Me.

Ironic, considering she’s trying to land her first copywriting job. Still—she hesitated, lest she come across braggadocious. After all, this will likely be your first impression of her, and for someone who considers going to the gym and cooking (surviving) to be hobbies, there’s a likely chance you also deem her boring.

Boring and vain. Two very bad things. Not looking good for her.

And even so, if she had written an About Me, it probably would’ve been a series of subtle brags disguised as random facts, clearly designed to bait small talk in an interview. Which most anyone can see right through. You know, like who even cares that every night she vacuums in the dark before her second dinner (she’s so organized!). Or how she once got stung by a jellyfish (and adventurous!). Or that she loves to walk her Belgian Malinois named Raven (she has a dog, which everyone knows this is the easiest way to every other dog owner’s heart!).

Ugh. So transparent. 

Chloe is always learning (bonus subtle brag!), but one thing she knows for sure is when to exercise humility — so instead of not writing any About Me, she will leave you with this perfectly curated pseudo stream of consciousness instead.

People are like words. They can stand on their own, but are better together. Okay, I’ll stop pretending I’m not the one writing this now. Hit me up so we can talk about dogs & vacuums. And second dinners.
