After completing my career assessment it shows that I am an organizer, a helper, and artistic person. These were my top three results, and my lower results show that I am also a persuader, a do-er, and a thinker which I highly agree with. My dream career is to become a military chef. I love to cook, eat, and see people enjoyed my creations, while I also want to pursue my career in the military service. My passion for cooking has always been in me since I was a little girl, although I was not interested in the military field until my ninth grade year in high school after joining the JROTC program at Charles R. Drew high school. My JROTC instructor major Bohles did not exactly inspire me to look into this career, but he pushed me forward and assured me that I had the ability to achieve ANYTHING. Whenever I had doubts about anything, he always gave the entire class including myself an inspirational speech which gave us all motivation. I hope to accomplish the goal of serving at least 10 years in the United States Air Force. Along, with traveling across the world and serving at least 25,000 people during my time in the military. To prepare myself for this career I am currently completing my fourth year in JROTC and my second year in culinary arts. I have also spoken with a recruiter from the Air Force and a chef from Le Cordon Bleu culinary school. I plan to go to school for culinary and also a 4-year college majoring in the military sciences and also participate in the AFROTC.
