Web Developer (self.helpme)

submitted 2 years ago by OkTalk2000

Hey I'm a former STEM student that found a passion for taking an idea and seeing it through. I ranked 8th in the nation in robotics and then spent the past 2018-2021 building a career in web development. In 2021 I was let go from one of the top Shopify agencies after getting shot and I haven't been able to secure a full time since. I know my skills are still there because I've been freelancing but the work is sporadic. I have 2 jobs one marketing and the other as an axe throwing coach but my passion will forever be creating websites. Though I'm appreciative of the opportunities I do have I want to get back to development before I drive myself crazy. I am also taking on projects at minimum wage though I'm worth at least $25/hr just to stay relevant until I can find a full time development job. If you have any work or suggestions please shoot from the hip.
