Kim Gajewski shares why its never too late to change careers...

I got into cyber…  through auditing night courses at the National Intelligence University.

I would tell my younger… that it is never too late to change careers, and to seize every chance to take on projects that intimidate you – those are the ones that result in the best experiences.

The biggest influencers in my career… have been the leaders who dedicate time to early-career professionals, starting with former Assistant Secretary of Defense Andy Weber whose penchant for helping students and fellows remains legendary.

My recommended read… is Shogun by James Clavell.

A favorite place of mine is the National Arboretum. I promise – it’s well worth the drive!
