Shy but want to be an engineer?

I’ve always been very shy, and I’m an engineer. I gained a lot of confidence, though, after doing very well in engineering school (undergrad and grad). All of a sudden, I liked talking to other people about my field! I interviewed well and wasn’t nearly as shy. That carried over into my personal life, and now I deliver speeches about mental illness. If you had told me I would turn out like this, I would NEVER have believed you.
