Aim as high as you wish.
The drive you have shown undertaking the training is right. The exposure to the industry given by your current employment, should allow for some networking-use it.
Once you get your first job, enjoy it and with the next one enjoy etc etc. With every opportunity keep your standards high, don't get slack and take too many short cuts-be disciplined.
Do not worry about your age, do not even think about it except to get spoilt on your birthday. Aim for what ever you want to achieve, only you and the economy can affect the outcomes. Have a go it is better to die trying (yeah thats a bit extreme but you get the idea).
The ace of the base can be just that and they are everywhere,so ride low in the saddle and in the middle of the posse.
oh and something else you have in your favour- a supportive partner, don't forget !!!!
you are already half way to wherever it is you are going. Have fun,
