How did you pick your career? Did you know all along?

I did not pick my career. I do not have a passion or hobby which I knew had to become my future career. Instead, I decided to take small steps and fine-tune along the way. It is still the case today and I know I want to job to evolve.

When did you get your first Big Break? How did you get it? How did it go?

I would say I have ever had a big break. I have been successful at my different jobs so far and have gained recognition of my peers. Who knows, my big break might yet be to come!

What is the most useful piece of career advice you got as a student, and who gave it to you?

The most useful piece of advice I have ever received was to always think twice before making a decision but once you have, enjoy the moment without looking back. Never have regrets!

When you were a student, did you do anything outside of school to build skills or get knowledge that has helped your career?

I believe extracurricular activities are always beneficial but should be your own decision. What I loved doing outside of school (and now work) that truly helps me be a better person / employee is being curious and trying to discover new things. On my part is it linked to cultures and gastronomy and I tend to travel a lot to fulfill those wishes but it can apply to anything.
