I plan to leave tech to pursue art
Hi! I'm the author of this post -- it was an unlisted draft that I shared with a few friends, was planning to rewrite most of this before publishing. Please forgive the rough edges<p>Main changes I'd make to this article<p>- Agreed with others that I might be naive, but I'm 20 y/o and now's the right time to shoot for my dreams rather than settle<p>- I'm applying to animation school soon (Sheridan). I started coding when I was 12, I expect this career change to take a few years, and am in it for the long haul<p>- My worst case is I don't enjoy working in art, and go back to tech. I don't believe you can make a successful career change without going all-in<p>Happy to answer any questions :)<p>Made a little music video with some of my art if you'd like to take a peek<p><a href="https://twitter.com/LiamHinzman/status/1589660449271959552" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/LiamHinzman/status/1589660449271959552</a>
