I spent 20 years in investment banking. I wore the suits, closed the deals. Then one day, I decided none of it was enough.
Not because it wasn’t prestigious. But because every morning, something quiet inside me was screaming louder than the Bloomberg terminal. I wanted to make real things. Things you could touch.
Here’s what nobody tells you when your career looks flawless on paper: the hardest part of changing isn’t the risk. It’s the permission.
I had no mentor, no roadmap, no design degree. What I had was 20 years of understanding how value is created and an obsession with form and materials I’d been quietly feeding on the side. So I became a designer. From scratch. I designed a lamp. Karl Lagerfeld bought it.
The finance brain didn’t disappear, it sharpened the design eye. You don’t leave your past behind. You weaponize it.
You don’t switch careers. You compound them.
If your career looks successful from the outside and feels hollow from the inside. I see you. I was you. Come find me.
