brief intro

Hi

My name is Dinara and I'm a junior at Baruch College. My major for now is Management, I hope. It was really hard for me to determine what i want to do in life and I'm still not 100% sure about it. When i just came to Baruch as a freshman I had some ideas about what I don't want to do for most part of my life. I knew I didn't want to be majoring in Accounting because I couldn't imagine myself sitting in the cubicle and counting other people's money. But it is like most of the people say is a "safe" job, meaning that companies will always need accountants. But it is just for me. Other popular major at Baruch is Finance/Investments, in my opinion it feels like a man's job. I know that there are plenty of successful women in finance, but still the majority is men. I always had this image about a good financier, that it is have to be a guy in the grey expensive suit. So, basically Management was an easy choice for me. My ultimate goal is to work in the fashion industry and with time become someone like Jalene Hermann (CEO, YSL)or Tamara Mellon ( President, Jimmy Choo). These women have a great careers in the field that I just love to be a part of. I know it sounds too ambitious for some people, but i think that you must set your goals as high as possible to succeed.
