Subject: [NTG-context] (ConTeXt LMTX) How do I fix the centering and setting up width in xtables?

I am trying to make a resume in ConTeXt (to see how well my skills have gotten, I am still quite a beginner) and Iw as able to produce what is in Pastebin.

Though, I am having trouble with the table that goes over the big sized text that would be my name. It has  an email, a phone number, and an address but they are all.... aligned very weirdly. I want them to be centered. Though, the phone number has some sort of problem with alignment, and I don;t know fi the other ones are causing it or are also aligned wrong.

I also wanted to make this code:

\startxcell[topframe=on,bottomframe=on,align=flushright]
    Ability to communicate strongly and effectively, being a reliable team member, supporting a team whenever needed, and the desire to help everyone
\stopxcell

has it so that it doesn't take up so much horizontal space (Ideally it is taking up 1/3 of the width I am allowing for since there are three rows in total) , but when I add width={some value} into the square brackets, it will add a blank line after all the text, and this is not what I want. 

is there a way to fix what I am experiencing? I would also not mind if I could be told how to improve my code, whether it be by adding startxrowgroup, startxcellgroup, or head and footer sections., or other options. Thank you for reading.
