There I was playing around with photoshop, it felt a like video-game. I would spend days trying to figure out
how it worked, it never crossed my mind I was “designing”… One day somebody saw my work online, liked it
and offered me a job.
“Getting paid for what I enjoy and have fun doing?”, me at age 16, couldn’t resist.
Little did I know I was about to kickstart my career.
