Personality Profile For Vitruvius

Vitruvius

The following is a personality profile of Vitruvius based on his work.

Vitruvius is shrewd, skeptical and tranquil.

He is empathetic, he feels what others feel and is compassionate towards them. He is imaginative as well: he has a wild imagination. But, Vitruvius is also philosophical: he is open to and intrigued by new ideas and loves to explore them.

More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for discovery.

He is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: he cares more about making his own path than following what others have done. Considers independence to guide a large part of what he does: he likes to set his own goals to decide how to best achieve them.
