This year is full of major changes and my career is one of them. A month ago I left graphic design behind and started working full-time @redfroginteriordesign conveniently located 2 blocks from my home.
I love going to work everyday and I feel very lucky to have found a great mentor who has gone above and beyond to show me the ropes.

Today I gave two weeks notice at the job I’ve been at for almost 3 years.

I’ve been wanting out of here for a long while. But when I look back at my time here I well up with pride in myself. I’m usually the first one to discredit any ounce of self-confidence I muster up but this is the first time I feel like I made all the right decisions.

When I started here I was dating a very toxic person and I was not at my best. It feels like eternity ago but a few short months after I managed to end that relationship and moved on. I got involved with a couple assholes on the way but no lessons were lost on me. There was one evening I was spending time with one of these people, and I came across a flyer for the Faculty of Extension advertising the Residential Interiors program.

I enrolled. I worked full-time while going to school part-time and worked hard and I was persistent when it came to pursuing connections I knew in the field already and now it’s paid off. And as much as I blame luck and good timing, Brendan reminds me that it was mostly me.

I just love to look back on all the shit and see the good that followed and if there wasn’t shit to trudge through, I wouldn’t have found the good.
