About Me

I’m an “ex mature student”, I started University at 26. Why? I felt stuck in a job I didn’t like and saw no future.

I felt undervalued, unappreciated and obviously underpaid. My life wasn’t going anywhere! I wanted a career change.

I graduated at 30 and my life has changed completely since then. It’s never too late!

I started this blog anonymously because I am super shy, but I want to help everyone who feels like I felt at that time… YOU CAN DO IT
