Welcome to Career Breakdowns!
My name is James Marshall. I’m currently a senior at Plano East High School. I started this website as a way to document all that I’ve been learning about different careers. Due to Corona Virus, I was not able to participate in a summer internship as I had planned. So I decided to venture out on my own to get first had knowledge and learn about different careers. What started as a summer project has now turned into a passion project.
I thought it would be cool to share what I’ve learned with other students who may be trying to figure out their career path as well.
This is only the beginning!
