I went from being an English teacher, to a freelance web developer, to an event coordinator, to a full-time blogger/livestreamer–by leveraging the skills I learned through my decade of being a hobbyist with WordPress (and from being a teacher). My talk will be about showing people how they can do the same and what kinds of skills they have that they may not think are skills, and things they can work on to focus in on those soft skills that they can’t take a Udemy or Lynda course for.
