At the moment, I’m lucky enough to say that I am a full-time content creator, with my content focused on my desk setup, design, photography, and cool products.
I studied graphic design at university and was fortunate to land a job in the industry soon after graduating.
Since graduating, I have worked at three different companies over a four-to-five-year period.
My main focus in graphic design was branding, which is how I started my content creation journey.
I initially did what all of us designers do — posting our work online as a kind of portfolio.
Later, I started to create posts about design tips, sharing my own experiences and trying to give insight to younger designers.
This then led to me expanding my niche of content, so I started posting about my desk setup, which fortunately seemed to resonate with everyone.
This kept going as I made more and more content about what I enjoy — my wildlife photography and tech.
And somehow, I now do this as a full-time job. Strange world!
Take us through your setup
My first desk setup was in a spare bedroom at my dad’s house, which is where this journey started for me.
My setup there was in a small alcove with a black accent wall.
It was quite a dark, moody setup, to say the least.
But after saving up, I was finally able to make a deposit and buy my first house.
