single resource partially tasked on multiple projects

[Daesthai]

I have a single that is tasked with a fixed duration task. This sets them to
25% utilized during that task.

I'm trying to also task the same resource to an additional fixed duration
task that would add roughly another 25% utilization.

However, project is not letting the two tasks exist concurrnetly with the
same resource, even though the resource is not wholly utilized. Even though
predecessors are not set, it's forcing the first task to be complete before
the second begins.

I'd like to have the two tasks exist concurrently and show the resource's
total utilization between the two tasks. I'm sure it's just a setting I'm
not famliar with or something simple I'm not doing.

What am I missing?

Thanks for any advice.
