Tad Berkery is a student and storyteller who is currently studying at Johns Hopkins University. As a high school student, he experienced firsthand the uncertainty of initially not knowing what he wanted to do and created What’s the “Right” Career? to serve as a resource for the large community of high school and college students struggling with the same question. While he pridefully continues to explore new interests and industries and still has lots to learn, he has discovered an interest in data analytics and economics and spent last summer working as a data analyst at a growing fast-casual company. He hopes that What’s the “Right” Career? will serve as the go-to resource for any students or professionals who don’t know what they want to do or who are looking for guidance and advice from industry experts as they design or even redesign the career of their dreams.
