Long time ago went to the states to study Civil Engineering since all of my relatives are Engineers and it was an easy choice. Before finishing my Master's in Civil Engineering fell in love with CS/programming and jumped into a Master of Science Computer Science program. Finished first my CS and then my engineering degrees. Worked for 3 years as a web developer in the states.
Came back to Greece and started working as a Civil Engineer in my family's office and in parallel started building websites for relatives and acquiantances. In 2006 (2 years later) I had enough clients to focus on Web development alone. I have been doing remote freelance web development ever since and have not looked back.
I would not say that are jobs are secure (as some people said) if we don't spend enough time on learning !!!! I am glad that I like learning new things all the time ...
