From Financial Auditor to Ocean Adventurer

I graduated with a degree in economics. I followed the path that seemed secure and “successful.” I landed a job at PwC not long after finishing school, dove headfirst into the high-paced world of financial auditing, spending long nights poring over numbers and learning how to speak the language of balance sheets, client risk, and audit strategy. And then one day in 2013, while on a much-needed break, I went scuba diving for the first time. I took a deep breath underwater, and something clicked. Something inside me stirred that I hadn’t felt in years.
