“Try new things while you’re in college, it’s a great time to do that. When thinking about a career, follow their heart, follow their passion, not necessarily what other people want them to do or what society wants them to do.”

“Don’t feel like you have to figure everything out the first month or two or even year after high school graduation. You have plenty of time to find your passion and discover what is going to make you really happy.”

“People are not the sum of the salaries or their college GPAs. No one will be concerned with those aspects of your life. What people care about, is how hard you work and how much you can give back to others. Always put in the extra effort to be kind to people. Good luck.”
