Exploring Your Professional Goals

Professional Interests:

When I think about my dream job I envision myself very successful and happy. If I could hold any job it would be a talk show host. I would absolutely love to be a talk show host. What appeals to me the most about being a talk show host is that time you get with your audience, what new information you will share next and the kind of relief you will provide for them. Whether it is laughter or advice. This job involves serious interpersonal skills, excellent verbal and physical communication and overall a stunning, relatable, likeable personality. A professional talk show host would carry out various activities day to day. They can go searching for the next thing that people need to be aware about and figure out how to help, or find some information that can benefit others and definitely thinking about what message they want to send to their audience. A lot of inspiration for this work comes from Oprah Winfrey and Steve Harvey. Right now I have my eyes on Steve. I love that he is very personable and keeps it real all the time. I admire that he is a man of his word and a man of family. He and his wife have an organization that helps kids grow into becoming amazing young adults. What I have found impressive is the amount of young kids that he and his wife mentor. They came onto the show to express their gratitude on his birthday. WHen these kids were talking they spoke loud, clear with confidence. You can tell just by the body language that they had a good head on their shoulders and were going to move on to better things. Here is a video to the gathering of steve and some of his students: Steve Harvey Surprise Guest What I love most about Steve’s work is the passion. He loves what he does and he uses it to help others all the time. His show even has a segment where you can “ask steve”. He is a big guy full of love and wanting to spread that message. Lastly, I love his work quality is seen through his consistency and I hope to be that way and even better in my future.

Mission Statement:

I am very young. I have to say I have not found the one thing that is most important to me in my personal life or professional life being that I have not started the professional side just yet. Although from my experiences growing up I realized love conquers all. When I say love I am speaking about all kinds of relationships. Whether it is with your mother, father, husband, wife, girlfriend, boyfriend etc. The only way to get through and climb up is to build relationships and the foundation of a relationship is love. Love is what helps build, involve and drive. It sure can drive you crazy but it can also open doors for you as well. I have always been able to identify myself very well to others. I am confident, independent and very self-motivated. I would have to say about 90 percent of that comes from my mother. From shelters to welfare, to not having a baby sitter and attending her college classes and assisting her at work at the Waldorf in New York City. I always thought I had seen it all and been there, the truth is I went through it second hand I never felt the pressures of life. I find these characteristics, personality traits and attitude comes alive when I am going after something I want, need or anything that needs to be done. It has made me who I am today. The media industry inspires me a lot. Something new is always coming along and you can never guess what will happen after your lunch break to next week, which is the way I lived my life with my mother on the edge or waiting for the waves to come so that we can jump over them. Its exciting to be put to the test because in my eyes it only means you are ready to move forward. I dream of having my own television network and talk show, I know I can get there. One thing I do know is that I cannot get there on my own, I need to network and meet people in my life that can I can grow with, people I can learn from and help teach. I hope one day I am able to share with my studio audience or employees the great value in love and building relationships.
