7 years ago i would have called myself similar.Though i was just graduating and could have hardly called it research. But 3 years working in the industry with Big blue and i see i have got OCD with maintainability. Heck, i wouldn't even have noticed, if i hadn't quit and went to do a master's. But 4 years since, and i still haven't quite undone the OCD, mitigated yes, but not back to the get shit done passion....I keep working on it...so, i will qualify that 6 months to start a startup, with something about the type of product you aim to build. - May be something along the lines of the impact you expect to make with it.
