As my years in high school was coming to an end, I had to come up with a decision on what career path I wanted to follow. I blindly followed the crowd and decided that I should pursue a career under medical degree. It took me four semesters to finally realize that I had chosen the wrong career. I initially transferred to City Tech to major in Dental Hygiene, spent a semester and then changed my major into Hospitality Management, this is my semester as a student in this major. I had previously worked in a couple of restaurants and realized that I liked customer servicing. I chose this major as it gives me the opportunity to explore the different paths of hospitality and decide on what really interests me. Some of personal strengths are: hardworking, dedicated and determination to improve my skills.

"Hospitality starts with the genuine enjoyment of doing something well for the purpose of bringing pleasure to other people." Danny Meyer, USHG
Nice to meet you!! Like myself, I switched from colleges and from another major. This is also my first semester in City Tech, we do have a lot of things in common, experience in hospitality industry, some strengths & interests to explore different paths. Looking forward to hearing more about you, and taking this journey along with you & others in the class!
I understand where you’re coming from, it took me a while to be able to figure out if I really wanted to study hospitality but after working for the first time in restaurant and migrating from another continent I decided. I know I made the right decision
Hello!!! Tenzing is very insteresting what you wrote. I was confused too when started the college and started in the medical field but I also strongly believe that never is late to do what you really like and leave what you feel that is not making you happy anymore. I wish you the best now that you are doing what you really like.
Your work experience will help you ask the right questions as you continue through the curriculum.
