 ## 2013: Internship
+I left my stable paying SEO job to work as an intern in a field I wasn't familiar with yet. As a result, I didn't have money to pay for uni anymore. In fact, I wouldn't have cashflow to pay for my bills in 6 months. Interestingly enough, that's the timeline for a internship, so I worked REALLY hard to get promoted to a full-time role. And thanks to the shockingly empowerment I received from everyone at iG, I not only got a full-time role, but I also transitioned to BE (something I learned I prefered) and then got a huge pay bump.
