I knew within days of being at that PR agency that it was something I wanted to do. I became an accounting major because PR, Marketing, and Advertising can be difficult industries to break into. The realist in me said, do something that you know you can get a job after college. Forget that! After one semester, I was miserable. So, I knew I had to do PR. I’ve been in love with it since I was 17 years old.
You are in control of your destiny. I believe that the seats that we sit on are not by accident. It’s important to do something you’re passionate about. You should be doing things that you love because it’s not living if what you do isn’t driven by passion. Before I graduated college, my Father gave me good advice. He said never do anything for the money. I understand that is a privileged statement because sometimes people have to do things to survive. But when you are in a position to do it for love and passion, you have to go where your talents lead you. God gave us these talents for a reason, and I believe we should use them to forge our paths.
