Summary: I am interested in: Management, marketing, social media influencing, styling, and Events/promotions. Personally, I am keeping my ideal job ideas free as I know it is difficult to get the job you want in any industry. When I attend university, I feel I’ll have a more definite decision about what career is most suited for me.

Social media marketing is the most interesting for me due to the fact that it’s usually in an office, hopefully friendly staff, and teamwork is prevalent. It also seems very flexible time wise, which means I can take care of my mental and physical health while having time for social situations.
