Hack The Plan: How I Made a Career out of Not Knowing What I Want To Be When I Grow Up. (emf2024)

"So what do you do?" Everything. ────────── As a kid I couldn't decide what I wanted to be when I grew up. I still can't, but over the past twenty years I've turned that into a superpower. In this talk I'll tell you how I hacked the idea of a standard career and managed to combine skills from different fields and specialties, leading to some unique roles and opportunities. If you love learning and constantly adding new tools to your intellectual toolkit, you’ll find that being a 'nerd of all trades' is not just fun—it’s the best way to live. The only downside? When someone asks "so what do you do" at parties, you'll never quite know what to say!
