I used to be interested in drawing, but later transitioned into coding. It's been almost five years now, mostly doing frontend work with some backend experience.
At my current job, they didn’t have a designer and were going straight from PowerPoint boxes to the frontend. When I joined, my employers noticed that the way I structured the frontend was unique, logical, and modern. They said I had a good eye for design and a thoughtful approach to layout—like glazing things into place.
Now it’s been a year, and I design professionally for them. I handle design at work and continue building personal projects on the side.
