Michigan Technological University
After weighing all my options I realized that [|MTU] was going to be my home for the next part of my life. What I didn't realize was how long I was going to make it my home. This next part of the story I could probably turn into a novel or autobiography but for the sake of everyone reading this I will tell the condensed version.

I arrived at MTU thinking in 4 years I'll have an engineering degree and be able to get a great job solving problems. Over the next few years I worked hard and started to get into some of my engineering classes, but what I started to realize was that I didn't enjoy what I was doing. I kept at it during that year and even interned at KRAFT Foods as an engineer but as that summer came to an end, I still felt this was not the right field for me. I went to talk to my advisor and luckily this is a very common problem for college students - trying to figure out what they want to do in life. After talking to my advisor for a while, we finally came to a conclusion that computers might be the right field for me to pursue.

So now I'm in my 4th year of college, 3rd at MTU, and I felt like I was almost starting over again. I was feeling pressure from family and friends asking when I would finish college. I was lucky to have some people tell me to do what I needed to do and what made me happy. Well a couple years later I graduated from MTU with my B.S. in Business Administration (MIS Concentration) and was ready to get into the real world. Where did I end up?
