Reflection:
 Do you think you would like to be one? 
Why? Why not?

After conducting research I don't think I would like to be one the reason why is because it doesn't interest me or fall under the category of my major. This profession seems like its boring and not something I would want peruse in the near future. I want to study human behavior and learn how to improve it. And this career doesn't focus on it, its on the eyes and I don't like working with the eyes.
