In a business sense, what is the greatest thing about being under 40; and then what is the worst?

The greatest thing about being under 40 are the many different opportunities that are before you still to come in your career.

The worst thing about being under 40 is that you are still building some of your networks and resources and could have a greater impact now if you had those items already.

Best place to work outside of your office: When not in the office I, like so many others, work from my home desk. However, at times if my project allows I like working while sitting in the sun on my back patio enjoying fresh air.

Hobbies: I like hiking, cooking, camping, traveling, reading, crafts, playing board games, wine tasting, volunteering, and teaching myself new skills from online videos.

What you wanted to be when you grew up: I wanted to be a variety of things when I grew up, however the one I remember the most vividly was being a librarian since I liked books and keeping things in an orderly system.

#1 thing you want to accomplish by the time you turn 40: Currently one accomplishment I hope to attain before turning 40 is being the Youth Benevolent Fund President within my Active 20-30 Club.

This position guides our charitable giving through grants and teen scholarships which is something I am passionate about.
