I am looking for the suggestion for suitable career choice.
I am confused about what career suits my personality and passion. I like business, science, and art. I am good at math, but I don't like it. I don't like to do desk jobs but prefer jobs that require human interaction, hands-on work, and creativity and are also rewarding.

Hi, it’s completely normal to feel confused about choosing a career, especially when you have a lot of different interests and strengths.
Photography is a great option if you like being creative, working with people, and don’t want to be stuck at a desk all day. Photographers often get to move around, meet new people, and capture moments at events, in studios, or even outdoors. There are so many directions you can go, from portrait and event photography to commercial, sports, or even scientific photography.
Graphic design could also be a strong fit. It combines art and technology, lets you use your creative side, and often involves working on projects with others like developing brand identities, designing websites, or creating visuals for marketing campaigns. While some of the work is on a computer, it’s usually very interactive and project-based, with lots of teamwork and collaboration.
Fashion is another exciting path that mixes business, creativity, and hands-on work. You could explore roles in fashion marketing, merchandising, styling, or even design. The fashion world is fast-paced and social, with lots of opportunities to work with others and see your creative ideas come to life. Plus, it’s an industry where you can really express your unique style and personality.
All three of these fields use your love for business, art, and science in different ways. You can even combine them. For example, being a photographer or graphic designer for fashion brands, or working in marketing for creative companies. If any of these sound interesting, you might try taking a class, doing a summer program, or connecting with people who work in the field to see what it’s like. There are so many paths that let you be creative, work with people, and make an impact, sometimes, you just have to try a few things to find what fits you best.

You’re not confused, you’re multi-talented.
Based on what you shared, you likely need a career that combines creativity, human interaction, and real-world impact — not a desk-heavy, numbers-only role.
Look into fields like healthcare (hands-on science), architecture or design, entrepreneurship, marketing, product design, or event management. These blend business, creativity, and people skills.
Don’t choose based on what you’re “good at.” Choose based on what energizes you daily. Test a few paths through short courses, shadowing, or internships. Clarity comes from action, not overthinking.

It sounds like you enjoy variety, creativity, and working with people rather than sitting at a desk all day. Since you like business, science, and art, you might thrive in careers that blend these interests. Jobs like marketing, event planning, real estate, wellness or beauty industries, healthcare support roles like physical or occupational therapy, or even starting your own business could be a great match. These roles let you be active, connect with others, and use your creativity and problem-solving skills.
You might also like jobs where you help create experiences or make things better for others. Roles in product development, hospitality, fitness or wellness coaching, or creative business are good examples because they are hands-on and social. Being good at math is still helpful for planning and budgeting, but it doesn't have to be your main focus every day.
To figure out what you enjoy, try small things first without worrying about finding the perfect career. Part-time jobs, volunteering, shadowing someone, or small side projects can help you discover what feels fun and energizing. Often, you learn what suits you by trying things out, and it seems like you already know you want something active, creative, and people-focused.

Hi,
To be honest, the first that came to mind from what you like, dislike, and people you want to interact with, it sounds like you could like architecture.
It has a some math which you are good at but don't want to be fully in it, you will definitely have a lot of interactions with builders, investors.... and the best reward must be to walk by a building and say, "I designed this building!"
Additionally, while there is some desk-job part to it, you will definitely have more presence outside than most desk-jobs.
Maybe something in the healthcare industry. Like a doctor/nurse/PA... you will utiliza your strong math skills, have a lot of human interactions, not exactly a desk-job, but will have some hours at a desk, practically only hands-on work, the creativity will mostly come from you, all the while it should be very rewarding.
Those are definitely not the only options you have, but that were the first things to come to mind.
Good luck!

How about surveying? It's a division of civil engineering. It requires a license which is always something good. Careers that require a license generally pay better and are in higher demand. Surveying is about 30% measurements, 70% mapping, legal and other in-office. You could have your own business or work for a firm.
For human interaction, almost anything in Healthcare. I always recommend nursing especially nurse-anestitist. Mid-level providers have a lot of autonomy and make great bank.
