Leaving the security of a full-time job to work for yourself is a big decision—and not always the right one for everyone. In this session, Diego will share his own experience of making the leap into independence. We’ll talk about how to know if freelancing or starting your own studio is right for you, what to put in place before you leave and how to set yourself up for success early on. The goal is to give you a clear picture of what it takes, and the confidence to decide if and when to make the jump yourself.
