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.

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.
