Three careers that interest me include a nurse anesthetist, a physician assistant, and a cosmetologist. My current major is nursing and I plan on pursuing my degree in nurse anesthesia following my bachelor’s degree. I have always known that I wanted to pursue a career in the medical field because I want to make a difference to people in and outside of the hospital setting. However, I also have a strong desire to pursue a 10-month cosmetology program in order to become a licensed cosmetologist. My mother is a cosmetologist and I have learned so much from her. I find happiness in making other people feel beautiful. Lastly, the third career that intrigues me is a physician assistant. This career is interesting to me in that it is still in the medical field, but it allows one to be more involved in the medicine aspect of things than what nursing does.
