My name is Kim McCaskill and back in 2016, I identified as a music educator. During my internship in my last semester, a lot changed for me as I became a little more weary of what was being asked of teachers at that point in Florida regarding work/.ife balance. I decided to make a career change to join the military and play in the Marine Band as my back up plan. I put in countless hours of work practicing for my audition and eventually got in! During the time that it took to get all the paperwork set up to join the military, I took up a part time job at a little chicken restaurant known as Chick-fil-A. One day, the owner of the restaurant came up to me and asked me why I was working there. I told him about my degree and how I came to be working hourly as a cashier and he asked me to stay and join his leadership team. At that time, I really enjoyed the challenge of working at a fast paced environment and the position he offered to me was a training and hiring role which had a lot of similar transfers be

Turing Gear Up - Mod 0 Capstone

What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?

A part of human nature is to face problems on a daily basis and if you lack empathy, people will probably not come to you with their problems.

Once we can step into someone else's shoes, we can put ourselves in the situation to really make our solution real and helpful. Without empathy, there is a massive gap between being told the problem a
