- 1. I’m a junior here at Smithtown West and I enjoy math. I’m play on the Varsity Volleyball and Tennis team and I’m also a member of DECA. A field that is a possibility right now is accounting because I am a strong in math and like the business aspect of it. I like to think of myself as a quick learner and good at picking things up right away. I never played tennis before in my life and in my first year I went on varsity. Also, the only business classes I had taken before this was Accounting and Keyboarding, yet somehow I took a Marketing Test and qualified for States for DECA.

- 3. 1 Year Out I plan to go to a college with an undergraduate business program, where I can take classes such as economics, finance, accounting, management and communications. I hope to become the president of a sorority in order to game leadership experience and I will also apply for internship positions over the summer. Hopefully I will have a job within the first year of graduation. In this time I would hope to start building a professional network while still enjoying my free time and helping out my community. 5 Years Out Within my first five years I hope to be working with a steady job, possibly in accounting. I would hope to enjoy free time and possibly start a family. I would try to get a house relatively close to my job. 10 Years Out By this time in my career, if I hadn’t already, I would possibly go back to college to obtain a master degree or a J.D. It would most likely be difficult to start my own firm or business at this time in my career, but that would be a future goal of mine.
