0:00I still don't know who submitted my0:03website to framework gallery where you0:05did that. I kind of jumped to start my0:08career.0:10>> Hi, my name is Asha and I'm a framework0:12creator.0:16I've been a graphic and designer for the0:18last 5 years. I was painting and drawing0:21a lot when I was a child. half of my0:24life I thought I was going to be an0:25architect but I was always very closely0:29connected to art creative things when I0:32realized that architecture is just not0:35going to work and I wouldn't be able to0:37express myself that's when I decided I0:40would try going toward graphic design I0:43went fully freelance which was actually0:46a blessing and I love being a freelancer0:49my only experience with framer like0:51started last frame. I took a course. I0:54had no no web design experience before0:58at all. Only like the the static motion1:012D 3D. Actually, the website that won me1:05this award is the second or third one I1:08ever completed. One of my best friends1:11needed a portfolio made pretty fast and1:14I needed to finish my course. It1:17actually took us 6 days to finish it1:19too. I just did it for fun and for my1:22friends. Published the site in July.1:26First landed in the framework gallery.1:28The purpose of it was different. It's1:31amazing that it went viral and that1:33people liked it. But if it doesn't, it's1:35also fine. Like I'm doing this mostly1:37for myself. I've been in the framework1:39community for less than a year now1:42already. But I see how this is the type1:45of company that really wants to give1:46back to the creators. I did get several1:49like big commercial projects through a1:52client that found me through the site.1:55Being a part of this industry, I I did1:58have an issue with that imposttor2:00syndrome, all of the cool stuff that2:02comes with the with a job in design.2:05After some time, I kind of like broke2:07through it. Having prior experience in2:11design overall definitely helps, but2:14everyone can learn it to a certain2:16level. definitely if they're open to it.2:19I hear a lot of people speaking about2:21talent and obviously they mean wealth,2:23but I feel like it maybe takes away a2:26bit of the hard work that we've all been2:29putting into it. This is not something2:31you would have been born with. It's just2:33like years of practice and crying and2:36getting frustrated and you know after2:38some time if you don't give up and if2:41you really think this is worth it, it's2:44going to get better. That's so cute.2:47Go to Japan now.2:48>> Yes, we can go to Japan now.
