As a third-year student in Interaction and Industrial Design at the Queensland University of Technology, my journey began three years ago when I transitioned from architecture to my current field. After completing my first year in architecture and feeling unfulfilled, I discovered a newfound passion for web design. This sparked a shift in my academic and creative pursuits, and by the start of my second year in architecture, my dissatisfaction grew. Gradually, I began shifting towards interaction and web design, seeking fulfillment and aligning my studies with my evolving interests.
I eventually took the plunge and officially committed to full-time studies in Interaction and Industrial Design, excited for this new chapter and the creative adventures it promised. This shift has been marked by passion, growth, and flourishing creativity. Along the way, I've seen tangible results, such as achieving a 200% increase in website engagement for a small business with my latest project. While studying, I also ventured into small freelance gigs, revamping websites for local businesses. This added a practical touch to my education, merging theory with real-world design challenges. Recently, I wrapped up my first freelance website project with a small business, marking another milestone in my journey.
