Former volleyball star, struggling landlord, animal charity founder, Horace Mann School–attendee, Baruch graduate, NYU graduate, seasoned Wall Street financier, Disney star, Broadway producer, Brazilian journalist, two-time husband, and assassination target George Santos has announced that he is stepping down from his position as a U.S. representative of New York’s 3rd congressional district. The self-proclaimed “Catch Me if You Can” enthusiast has decided to return to his roots as a high school guidance counselor, where he has inspired countless students to follow their dreams. With his unusually diverse professional background, he is passionate about sharing career advice from his own experiences with young people. No matter what career they aspire to, he has already done it, and likely became an expert in the field. One of Santos’s former students, Elizabeth Holmes, claims, “Mr. Santos taught me everything I know about setting career goals.” During a recent interview about his first career as a guidance counselor, Santos alleged that some of his former advice to students has been made public: “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams,” for example, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world,” and “It takes a village.” Stay tuned on where he lands.
