What personal traits are necessary for your job?
“A personal trait necessary for my job is being understanding. I say so because I have to be able understand what are the best choices to made for the company. Being observant as well.

7. What skills are necessary for your job?

Public speaking is a huge part of my job whether it is in a meeting or at a seminar.”

What do you like most (and least) about this job?
“What I like the most about my job is I can be the catalyst for change in someone’s life. Knowing that I can be the influence in someone life that can change their lifestyle is very rewarding. What I like least about my job is the pay (laughs). If I could change anything about my job I would change the pay.”
11. What other kinds of jobs are available in your line of work?
“There is a superfluous amount of jobs available in my line of work. Jobs include: Film, research, policy work, environmental, and communication. This jobs are all in my department and there are many more outside my department. A description of one of the jobs is in research, you conduct research about women health that can be included in research projects. With everyone on the internet you will never have nothing to do.”
12. What words of advice can you offer someone interested in this line of work?
“RUN AND RUN FAST!!!! (LAUGHS) If someone wanted to be in this line of work I would tell them to study hard and take advantage of your professors and teachers. Furthermore, I would also say, take internships so you can be prepared for what you want to do and make sure this is the career path you
