1/ As I prepare to launch the biggest thing of my career 👀 I've been reflecting on my journey to this point. And the simple truth is - design changed my life.
But not in the way you think as I did not become a designer.
2/ Instead, I found an incredibly welcoming community that rallied around and helped when I did not have much to offer.
3/ On a very cold and rainy November morning in 2012, I arrived in Dublin, Ireland with less than 1k euro in my pocket, having never worked in tech and very few connections in the city.
4/ Before that, I spent a very turbulent 9 years in Canary Islands working in hospitality, with a short stint in London in between where I got some experience in sales and recruitment.
5/ I arrived in Dublin kind of lost but had one goal, I wanted to start a company so I could make enough money to realize my dream of opening a restaurant (LOL) Funny how that turned out.
