Freelancing the Net

Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!
Freelancing the Net Logo

I am very excited to announce that yesterday I launched a new blog, called Freelancing the Net. It’s a blog I decided to start that chronicles my journey to becoming a freelancer.

I know that can come off as a little conceded; I will be the first to admit that while I am proud of what I have done thus far, I wouldn’t consider myself extremely successful. I do, however, have a fairly unique view. I started freelancing in high school and continued through college. I went through a lot of things in forming a business earlier than a lot of people. Plus, a lot of people to ask me questions, just as I had a lot when I was starting.

I want this site to be a unique resource for people. There are lots of sites out there (most notably FreelanceSwitch) that provide advice and resources for freelancers. But this site is my first hand account of what I went through and continue to go through. I hope you like it! As always, any feedback is appreciated.

    I’ve Been Hiring A Lot

    My aspirations of being self-employed full time have always been about me running my own little business. I never figured I’d be hiring anyone to help me – employee or contractor.
