How did you decide the career path you took?

In high school, I took a graphic arts course in vo-tech school when I was a junior and senior. In college, while I was in journalism school, I found I really liked the various design courses in advertising and magazine design and such. I got a job at a local print shop doing typesetting and eventually layout as well — this was back when we used waxxers and cold type on photographic paper; desktop publishing was just starting to become a thing. I just sort of followed that path. I was good at it and I liked it. That sort of led to the Internet when it came online; I taught myself HTML and all about how to design and host websites and such. One thing after another. So, I sort of just fell into it.
