Shapiro Takeaway - Tyler Berg

The biggest thing I took away from Taylor's thoughts last class was his relaxed disposition and his enjoyment of his job. The fact that he started off as a typical college student like the rest of us - not knowing what he wanted to do professionally - made me feel a little better about not having a very direct career plan at the moment. His passion for turning the traditionally boring and dry obituaries into more interesting stories emphasized the importance of taking advantage of every opportunity you have. Clearly, doing exactly that helped him climb to where he is now.
