I never studied design in University I was a Fine Arts Major. A lot of my projects at school involved Digital media (video art, interactive art etc). I had developed the technical skills required for the industry, so when I finished school I took a job as a jr web designer, I thought it would be a way to remain creative while earning some money.
I have been doing this for about a year now, and have come to the conclusion that this is not for me. I cannot stand the lack of creative freedom, client's destroying ideas, and the lack of control in regards to picking projects. So I have decided to go back to school for a year and get my Bachelor of Education. It will alow me to pursue design/art in my own free time at my own pace choosing the work that I want to do.
So in the next five or so years I plan to pursue teaching while selecting pro-bono art/design projects in my spare time/summers off.
