Rules:
- 60–75 seconds when spoken (about 150 words).
- Structure: present (what I do now) → past (1–2 proof points with numbers) → future (why this role and this company).
- Simple, confident English. No clichés like "hard-working" or "passionate".
- End with a line that invites the next question.

Give 2 versions: one conversational, one formal. Then list 3 things I should NOT say.
