DALLAS, March 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

Nearly 60 career coaches – many of whom are BL alumni – will showcase their chosen career paths during six 15-minute sessions with approximately 250 BL junior students.

Many of the career coaches at the fair represent professions currently listed in the top 41 careers, including accountants and auditors, aerospace engineers, architects, dentists, lawyers, market research analysts, physical therapists, and many more.
