2. About Me…..
• Lifestyle Choices-Independence and
Achievement
A big part of my life is being independent and not having to lean
on others for support. Its not pride, but knowing that you can
live on your own not needing the support of anyone else.
Relying on somebody can lead to them controlling what you do in life.
Achievement is also a very important life choice to me. Having
a job in which I know I have accomplished something
important that can help people is an amazing feeling.
• Learning Style- Visual learner
Being a visual learner means that I am
more comfortable learning by seeing it
being accomplished in front of me. This
isn't saying that seeing is the only way I can
learn but just that it’s easier and faster.
3. About Me…..

Being surrounded by people not only that you trust but
that are
loyal and trust worth is healthy. I would enjoy being in a
job in
• Unique I'm around mature adults.
which I feel Qualities- Fast learner
Many people don’t believe me when I tell them this
but absolutely love to learn. I am fond of the idea
that there are so many things someone can
accumulate into there brains. But this must also be
because I am very competitive, hens the reason why
I do track and field. This quality is what makes it
harder for me to decide what career I want to have in
the future because I can do any job because I will
learn it fast and put all I have into it. Math, Science,
Language and History I enjoy doing all those
subjects.
4. Environmental Economist

An environmental Economist studies the affect the
environment will have towards the economy. From projects to
policy, theses economists will scrutinize the current or potential use
of resources and will advise the public, governments and business
leaders on the resulting environmental effects.
• Why This Career is For Me-
This career would involve working outside and a nice amount of
traveling. I would enjoy working outside because I wouldn’t feel as
if I was stuck inside all day. I am also fond of the environment and
would like to inform people that the environment isn't just the place
where we live and that we should take care of but that it also
affects the economy and other organisms on the planet. Two work
values are independence and achievement that really
relate to me.
5. Pharmacist
• What They Do-
A pharmacist is an important medical worker who aids
physicians, dentists and veterinarians by dispensing
appropriate medications to patients. Some pharmacists may
also specialize in pharmaceutical research, or in marketing and
sales of particular medications for a company. Many in this
field work in drug, department or retail store settings, and
many more work in hospital settings. They are specialists in
their knowledge of medications, and must always be furthering
their education in this area since new medications are
developed all the time.
• Why This Career is for Me-
I would like this job because it involves more socializing which
is also a quality of job I’m looking for. I wanted a job that
involved medicine but wasn’t a doctor because that would
involved to many years of school and I wanted to settle down
quick. Pharmacy involves only 5 years of school with some
annual medicine conference because there are always new
medicine.
6. Physical Therapist
• What Do They Do-
A Physical Therapist job involves helping patients
recover from an injury of a physical disability that
that impacts there mobility. This is on of the most one-to-one careers there
is. This job doesn't just involve helping the patient walk or move again but
help them mentally. Two work values are relationship and achievement.
• Why this Career is for Me-
I always wanted a job in which I would love going to everyday, and this
might be one of them. Waking up in the morning and knowing your going to
help someone is and amazing feeling. Once you have helped your patient
recover of to a state in which they feel better you know you have achieved
one of the hardest tasks in the world. The relationship that grows with a
patient is very hart warming and makes the job even more enjoyable.
7. Water Resource Specialist

Conduct, or oversee the conduct of, investigations on matters such as
water storage, wastewater discharge, pollutants, permits, or other
compliance and regulatory issues. Develop plans to protect watershed
health or rehabilitate watersheds. Develop strategies for watershed
operations to meet water supply and conservation goals or to ensure
regulatory compliance with clean water laws or regulations.
• Why This Career is for Me-
Like I said before, I am fond of jobs where I know I have achieved
something that will help people. If we didn’t have water resource specialist
there would be much more people without water. This career would involve
much traveling which is another factor I'm looking for in my
future job. The work values for this career are achievement
and working conditions. Two values that are very
Important to me.
8. Film Director
• What Do They Do-
A film's director is involved in every basic stage of its
production. Being a director requires the ability to visualize how a
script will be acted out, and the perseverance to see a long-term
project through to the end. It’s an incredibly demanding job and
one that requires creative vision, strong leadership and the ability
to be a consummate storyteller. As such, the director must visualize
and define the style and structure of the film and then bring this
vision to reality. A director’s main duties include casting, editing
scripts and composing, selecting and editing shots. Directors must
also be aware of the constraints of budget and schedule. Ultimately,
directors are responsible for the artistic and commercial success or
failure of a film or television show (continue).
9. Film Director (cont.)
• What Do They Do-
Aside from possessing creative vision, directors
must also understand the entire filmmaking process, which includes technical
know-how. Attention to detail, the ability to remain calm and rational under
pressure and be a strong leader as well as a team player are key skills for this
job. Since there is so much responsibility involved with the job of being a
director, it requires the ability to know when and what to delegate to others.
Many times that’s where the assistant director comes in.
• Why is This Career for Me-
I have always had this career in the back of my mind. I am
tremendously fond of movies and how they are made. The feeling
that you get after seeing a great movies I an amazing emotion.
I am an imaginative and creative person witch are the
Characteristics needed in a film director. The only reason why I
think this career might not be my first choose is because I like
being the best in what I do and I believe that I wont be the best
director. The most known and recognized director is Steven
Spielberg and if I ever choose to become a Director I would want
to be as known and appreciated as he is.
10. Aerospace Engineer
• What Do they Do-
An aeronautical engineer oversees the research and development of
different types of aircraft. He or she works with advanced computer
software to design new crafts, create detailed schematics, and conduct
simulated test runs. The engineer also supervises workers as they build
prototypes and models, ensuring that all elements are constructed exactly
to specifications. Aeronautical engineers work in many different settings,
including military agencies, government air and space programs, and
private aircraft manufacturing plants.
• Why is This Career For Me-
I have always loved to build things when I was younger, from building to
cars to plains. I was thinking about having a civil engineer as one of my
first chooses but I feel that becoming and aerospace engineer
would be much more of an obstacle. I do want a job
where I have to
think and solve hard problems. This job also involves creativity
and lab work which are two things I would love to do.
