what do your parents do (3/3)

So, Jake, what do you do?

I'm a graphic designer. I work for a small marketing firm in town.

That sounds creative and fun. Did your parents influence your career choice?

Not directly. My mom is a doctor and my dad is an engineer. They always encouraged me to follow my own path, though.

Wow, a doctor and an engineer? That's impressive. Do you ever feel pressured to go into a similar field?

Sometimes, but they were always supportive of my interests. They just wanted me to be happy and passionate about whatever I chose to do.
