I think something I learned about myself is that I like structure and being able to look forward to a new workday each morning. Also, I love people and meeting new people and I really enjoyed the experiences that I was blessed with through RSYEP.

Something that I learned about myself and my abilities are that I actually enjoy doing things that deal with problem solving. Usually, it is something I have ideas for but I never had an experience of it for a job on something that is a major real world issue. This is kind of something that made me realize that problem solving but also marketing/business to an extent, like the promotional and creation aspect, is something I want in my future career.
