"I certainly do not regret the direction I have taken my career; however, if I had to start over in a new direction completely I would likely pursue my Degree in Education and become a teacher. Both of my parents were teachers, and they seemed to have a very fulfilling career. I enjoy coaching and leading others so, any tasks in my current career that related to these skills, are very welcome."

"Working as an animator gives me the creative freedom to display my art, which I would need in any career path that I chose. If I could not be an animator, I would chase a career in 3D modeling as it would still give me the creative outlet that I need."
