[EADGBE]

I had done a few Wordpress frontends for friends and family and this Ad Agency really needed a "User Interface Developer" for the backlog of projects.

After a few long discussions technically of Wordpress development they deemed me capable enough to handle the workload. I persisted with my intentions to help and break into web development, and it blossomed wildly from there.

By the time I started my second job, I had a real portfolio of Fortune 500 brands live and in the flesh and never looked back from there.

Honestly, it was stupid how easy it was to break into this niche. It took a lot of sleepless nights and long work weeks, but seriously anyone could do this. I'm a big proponent of that. I was a meat cutter before this.
