Keen-eyed Kat

Keen-eyed Kat considers herself rather normal other than the fact that she has a keen-eye for detail. Whether or not it is obvious to those around her, she pays attention to her surroundings as much as she can. She likes to read people and figure them out. Although she likes to observe, she doesn’t like people paying attention to her. She rather observe than be the center of attention. Due to this she hates public speaking but she does it when needed. Her high school was predominantly based on presentations. Instead of regents she had to present 30 minute lessons teaching something she learned that year in each subject. She also used to constantly volunteer to give school presentations at her high school open houses and sometimes she would even present in Spanish but for some strange reason she doesn’t feel comfortable giving speeches or presenting at Baruch.

In class she rather listen than to partake in large group discussions but she hates when teachers pick on students at random because she isn’t good at answering when put on the spot. She rather talk in small groups such as 3-5 people. When giving presentations she tends to get nervous but she usually successfully presents her points. She is usually extremely nervous when she has to hold something while giving her speech because she tends to talk with her hands a lot.

Keen-eyed Kat could definitely become a better public speaker if she’d stop observing people so much while presenting. She’d much rather present to a group of random people than to present to people she sees constantly because her super power allows her to know too much about how people around her will respond. She isn’t good at dealing with her new-found anxiety issues and tends to grow extremely nervous now but she’ll learn to manage and forget about everyone’s reactions.
