Have you ever wondered if you made a career mistake? What was it?
Career mistakes are among the most common mistake that has highly lingered and surrounded our entire life. Additionally, if not precisely discovered in very initial stages, the pressure keeps on mounting within us that finally we are forced to give in. Furthermore, we are caught unaware at times that we even end up having wasted a lot of our time and money pursuing a course that you are not explicitly or passionate about. More so, this is as a result of setting the role model and not going through what our role models went through in the first case.
Just like the case of Shannon Miller with her three times visit to Dr. Solomon, my doubts were shortly confirmed when I graduated with a mechanical engineering degree. Soon after I was through with my internship, I slowly began to realize that this was not the right place that I was supposed to be in. I needed a chance to explore my computer world from a much different angle. Since, my early days at high school I had developed a passion for computers, I knew this was the last place that I would love to be. Unfortunately, this did not work out as planned since the persuasion of my parent on how I would make a fortune once I graduate from engineering school I will have a better life. I enrolled in the engineering school but shortly after I graduated I was met with a huge disappointment.

How did you resolve that concern?
I worked for three years before I managed to raise a substantial fee for a computer science degree. I dived back only going to the evening classes which I attended after work in the day. After going through a rough experience of both working and learning, I managed to acquire a job as a database administrated for a local non-governmental organization.
Have you had a mentor who has helped to shape your career?
My most significant portion of mentorship was from my high school teacher Mr. Zack; he was my computer teacher and a close friend by the time I was graduating high school. On several occasions, he had contributed at least to pursue my parents that I go for a computer science degree.
About the experience?
In my second year as I was working as a new engineer, I was entirely disappointed with the amount of money my parents had contributed to my studies yet still I was not satisfied with the career I took. He offered me advice to work hard and raise money for my school fees in computer science.
