I'm offering
I've worked in various companies from start ups to massive corporations, from the Finance Industry to Google. I love Design and everything about it! It is my life passion and I have been doing it since I was a young boy on his first laptop. Most of my design work is visual heavy and can do some awesome movie editing!
People mostly think Designers are people who make just awesome visuals in Photoshop, however its much more than that - Design impacts every single part of your daily life, from the way your coffee machine works or the way your car drives; which is why I love to do what I do. The impact, especially in the software field is immense. My biggest drive and aim is building all sorts of software which changes the world and makes it into a better place; however I might be already doing that and don't even know about it.
You can still fail at something you don't enjoy, so why go to a job you don't even like? Just because it's a safe job doesn't mean you can't be let go. Don't be afraid to take risks to find your passion in life.
