My background is in Sound Engineering ( been doing that for the last 20 years ), in the meantime I graduated in Media Production Management with a Major in User Experience, and about a year and a half ago decided to make a career change, since I achieved everything that was possible at my previous job, so there were no more challenges and I kind of got tired of the industry.

And since the tech has so much changed, since the times of slicing up the psd files, I took a few live courses ( JavaScript and SQL ), to kick start my new journey.
Has is it been challenging? Most definitely. But, to wake up and look forward to work on something interesting, is worth it. So I keep going ;)

Are you planning on working in UX or on writing software? I like the way you think about your previous job, this was one the reasons I also changed fields - not many things left to do/ learn.

I would like to combine both fields, I strongly believe that anyone in dev field should have at least minimum knowledge of UX.
Yes, after 20 years it was enough, no way to advance or further develop my career.
Kudos to you too for msking a change 🙌
