INTERVIEW


What you think was your biggest challenged?
Deciding what to do, what i wanted to do
And how did you decided?
I took a lot of classes, wasted a lot of money
So you explore all your options?
Yeah I did a lot exploring

why were you interested in business? how you got into that?
uhh.. I don't know. I guess marketing because I've always see those logos and there well done and I will think like about the process of arriving at that point where the logo was really good.and it came across well and when people saw it and responded so it was real curious, even commercial, real curious about how they knew what I would like you know, I could feel them talking to me... like they knew, like they were inside my head. So I got curious,then I wanted to do a four year degree in marketing but my school was too small and didn't offer that they only offer like business administration emphasis in marketing so I did that instead

So whats your number one recommendation for me?
Go to school. is like the minimum even a four year degree even now they are losing their value, a four year degree, because in America you can get grants and its almost just like the minimum you can do, and if you can go for your masters great, its expansive. but if you can make it that far then do it. cause then that's really a master degree its the only way you can indifference yourself, you know, you and other graduates.there's so many other people because I have so many other friends that have a degree but don't have jobs.

What about like a high school student that's undecided or doesn't know know what to do with their careers?
Just get involved through interns.Do internships anywhere you can, seriously like even you think, like the other day we were talking about being a dentist, even its at a dentist office just call and ask if you can shadow for a day or two. Because really you think you want to do a this things but really you don't know what its like until you envision your entire day because that one day times the rest of your working life. You have to think well am I going to be happy, like really happy, you can find the job that makes you happy and you won't be miserable every day that you have to work, you've be excited about and not dread your drive or your commute, you want to be happy whatever you take because it consumes so much of your life
