I’m honored to be featured in this amazing VoyageDenver magazine’s Inspiring Stories series. I’m also grateful to Sarah Miller for giving me this opportunity to share my experience with others in VoyageDenver Magazine.
Today we’d like to introduce you to Harsha Chathuranga.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
During my undergraduate studies in 2012, I worked as a freelance web and graphic designer, which was the start of my career. I had already started enrolling in a course in software engineering, which helped me a lot when designing websites. When I started, I knew nothing about designing websites, so I entered many contests on sites like Design Crowd, 99Design, and Fiverr to gather experience and knowledge.
During that period, I was able to win several competitions. I could sell my designs to customers from North & South America, Europe, and some of the largest Asian nations, such as the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, Canada, the United Kingdom, and China. Most of my customers are from the United States and are all wonderful people. I was able to continue working as a full-time freelancer after completing my studies. Many people used my services, and I earned a nice income.
