Late 20s early 30s is a fairly good demographic that employers target. It's not too old that an investment in training a new employee won't be lost to retirement or health issues and not to young that the indiscretions of youth will affect work performance and attendance. Some (sexist) employers might have concerns with women of that age getting pregnant and leaving to raise children but most smart ones will see employees who have children (Male or Female) as a benifit as it tends to discourage switching careers due to the inherent responsibility of raising kids, mortgages, health insurance etc. Now would probably be a good time to look into online school as almost all schools are offering this due to the pandemic. Maybe You can keep working and go back to school at the same time, that would be almost universally viewed in a positive light because You will have shown that You are motivated. If I was that age again I would do it, and I did do it. I was 28 years old when I went back to school and changed fields. I don't regret it but since then I have changed again to a completely different "field" of work, literally... I'm now building my own farm/orchard!!
