About 4 years ago aI left my 9-5 job to become independent and work on my own projects. I did some freelancing work on Upwork and then I thought about creating products and offer them for sale at ThemeForest. I created my first theme and I was lucky it was approved form the first time without any rejections. I got my first sale and slowly more sals come and I then started to upload more and more products and now I have 19 themes for WordPress, Ghost, and Jekyll.
