Danny U asked:


i have a colombian mother, my dad is from Pakistan, & was born in the USA. I speak spanish , english & will be learning Arabic. I will be double majoring in the above title at the Univ of Miami (FL) and then either doing International Law at Law School or a MBA in International Business. I enjoy diplomacy & politics & due to my unique background I feel i will be able to connect with people when i’m older. I dream of working in the field of International Diplomacy or something similar with the United Nations. I just wanted to get some input from other individuals & possibly ideas on other future career paths. Btw, my dad is on my back in order to take over his Civil Engineering company which is really not my dream.
