Chiara Brown, a short story about success


            Who better to tell the story than someone who works in the office. As a second year student here is my personal success story. I came to college because I knew I needed to and eventually along the way I would figure out what I wanted to do, start with the pre requisites and move from there. But like many other students I wanted something to fill my time and getting a job was the best way I knew how. So when I got the job as a career ambassador I dint know much about the office. But they have turned out to be more than just a place where I am employed but a family and a great resource for my personal success and that of many other students as well.
             My freshman year I was all over the place, an undecided freshman with no resume, first time away from home. But one day to better understand the office I took the Tieger test (it helps to better understand your personality and possible career choices or your personality.) the test was surprisingly accurate and I knew I had found interest in the jobs listed, speech pathology stuck out to me. So for most of my first year I was sure I wanted to do that, but a few breakdowns later I realized I hated it.
            In high school, a few times I contemplated being a teacher but thought nothing of it, turns out that’s what’s for me. I am now a declared elementary education major on my path to matriculate fully into the program and be a principal of a school one day.
I truly owe my current and future success to the career development office, and am so grateful for the services they offer.

                                                Sincerely,
                                                            The girl who now has her head on her shoulders
                                                                                                Chiara Brown
