My first job as a designer at Link Dot Net is a memorable one. I was both excited and nervous, as it was my first time in a design role. The project was a banner for Massrawy website, and I spent hours carefully selecting the perfect fonts and colors to represent the campaign identity. The final banner going live filled me with a sense of accomplishment and pride, which fueled my love for design.
