Career Goal Statement

Hello everyone, 

I strive to be the best at it all. Work, school, hobbies, you name it, my goal is to be the best there is. Now I know many would say that what I'm claiming to be is quite unrealistic but when challenged against someone with similar expertise as I have, I am confident I would come out victor. 

My long term career goal is to someday own my own architecture firm, a large, respected successful firm. To me this is challenge above all others I have set myself  up to, it’s something I will have to work for years and years to come, but to me it’s worth the time, effort, schooling, and anything else I will have to go through to achieve this goal. I remember my first year of high school; I took an architecture class and realized I had a natural talent for it. Not only was I good in this skill set but I also enjoyed it more than anything else in school. During that course I made up my mind that I would become an architect someday.

At the moment I am working on becoming an architectural drafter, this is my main short term goal, which I hope to achieve in about 1 year. I am taking the required course for this at Clark College. In the meantime I am hoping to find an internship at an architectural firm to gain hands on experience and acquire new skills. 

Before starting my course at Clark College, I took architectural drafting classes at the Clark Center Skills Center where I gained all the skills in architecture that I currently have. During these two years I participated in few competitions where placed 1st in class every time. I am looking forward to be challenge more and more as I work on becoming an architect and especially when I finally become one.
