I come from a family that is strongly influenced by the outdoors. We spend countless hours outdoors camping, fishing, and hiking. At a young age, I grew a passion and love for nature. That passion soon grew to be an obsession. When I was a young boy, I discovered the sport of hunting while looking at several books and pictures stored in my father’s closet.

Dave Armstrong is about to graduate from Harvard Business School and is facing three career options. The decision problem that Armstrong should be considering is not which of these three jobs should he take, but rather what job will satiate his career goals.
