Deciding to become a Web designer
At first, I love to see a good design of some websites and I love to do things with Photoshop. Then, I combine those two by learning HTML and CSS.
A Typical Day as a Web Designer
I am also a mother, so I do my work as web designer while my child is sleeping, usually start from 9 P.M until 12 P.M. Sometimes I have 1-2 extra hours when my child take a nap.
During my work time, I make templates for my online stores, do marketing, and do my customer's design orders.
