i was always a verbal creative; never showed much aptitude for spatial awareness, etc. learned pagemaker and pica rule working on a tight little high school newspaper.
studied romance languages as an undergraduate while doing little bits of design to earn extra money on the side. was getting print jobs just cos i knew the programs and then because i was doing print, people asked me to do web.
started a phd in linguistics, woke up one day to realise i was a mathematician. ran away from home. did a number of crazy person things.
got a job as in-house designer for a human rights agency here in london. stayed as long as i could until the money and the kudos became a serious issue.
now work for moth and am trying to become a solid development coder. back to linguistics in the end, eh? ahhh life.
