2024
It has been a while since I have been here. Not sure if it was a lack of motivation, or a lack of trying. Burnout has hit me hard in so many ways. Some bad, but some of it has been good. Change has been burning me out because chamge means having to adapt, and…

A Personal and Professional Journey
My old place of employment (my first ever full-time job) asked me why I wanted to leave them and if there was anything they could do to make me stay. Sadly, no. I had to leave my daily grind, my bubble and break a glass ceiling. Admittedly, it wasn’t an ideal workplace and I don’t…

Feeling the Pinch
I have only been in the workforce properly for around 5 years. Before I had my first full time job, I was floating around in all types of industries. I started as a waitress, and then moved into retail at a jewellery store, working for a fashion blogger, childcare and more. There were times where…

My InDesign Experience
I never understood the use of InDesign. As far as I knew, I just needed photoshop and Illustrator when I was studying Graphic Design. I found the controls hard, and the bounding box annoying when I wanted to move stuff, only for them to vanish entirely. Also, topping it off, across all Adobe products, I…
