1) What did you want to do when you grew up?

from age 8 until my Sophomore year of college - accountant (my mom was an accountant, I liked numbers). Before that, premier chef. (not sure why, just liked how it sounded)

2) Did you actively decide upon a career?

Not exactly. Sophomore year I realized accounting wasn't for me, and went for an operations management degree.

3) If so, is that the career you now have?

Not exactly. I'm in purchasing, a related field. My GF and I have a business as well, which is interesting. It's really her dream that I'm investing in/helping out with. Not that it's a bad thing at all- I don't think I'd ever have the drive to start one myself.

4) Do you have some "dream job" that you'd love to pursue but have not?

For a few years I wanted to go pro in volleyball- Didn't happen. I'd like to try the other side of the coin and get in sales, as I think my personality is more geared towards that. I'd love for the business to support us so I could pursue other interests (poker/working out/bettering myself in some way)


5) How old is too old to start a career from scratch?

Aside from athletics, I'd say as long as you have a sound mind, any point in your life you can pursuse what you'd like to do.
