What career advice would you give to your younger self?

I would tell my younger self to be a lot more selfish, I made a promise to my brothers when they joined the military, that I would stay with our mom until one of them got back. It's one time I wish I had broken a promise on purpose, just so I could go to college.

I have always told others that if I was to go back I would've gone into video game school to become an artist. But during that time there was such a negative perception of those who wanted to join the video game scene, so I never did it. Always go with your passion.

“Bet on yourself sooner.”

Learn skills that compound. Save more than you spend. Don’t chase titles—chase alignment. Say yes to risk, but back it with a plan. And never underestimate the power of relationships—they open more doors than résumés ever will.

If I could tell 16 year old me to start investing more time into studying culinary arts and to perfect my basic skills as fast as possible, man I would be farther up in the ladder than I am right now.

Be social and network more. It's hard for me because I like my space.

I want to become an artist but I had an experienced in college with my 3D environment models.

I would tell my younger self that it'll workout. You will be happy so long as you work towards being happy. It won't be easy but nothing will compare to BCT so you got this in the bag.

Love this question - I actually ask this to HM's during interviews.

I'd tell my younger self to network, network, network. Be known & not afraid to share your story or have someone else do it which is even better!

It's OK to have an eye on the high-paying jobs immediately after graduation but if the jobs aren't forthcoming, go for available internships where you get hands-on experience

Really press your manager and your colleagues to help clarify the gaps between your current performance and the next level.

Network as much as possibel

Ask for help. Not because you are weak. But because you want to remain strong.

Find something that truly interests you and that has the ability to keep your interests.
