When I look back at how my career in digital marketing began, it feels less like a planned decision and more like a natural path. It started many years ago, long before I even knew what marketing meant. I was in school, maybe in 3rd or 4th standard, and the one period I always waited for was the computer class.
While most students were excited about games, sports period, or going home early, I was excited about typing on a keyboard, clicking a mouse, and learning something new on the screen. I did not know the word “digital” at that age, but I knew one thing clearly: computers and technology made me curious.
That curiosity stayed with me as I grew up. I was the kind of student who loved exploring new websites, trying new apps, and learning how things worked online. The digital world felt limitless, and I always wanted to understand more.
As time passed, I started realizing that technology was not just something I liked; it was something I wanted to build my career around. Slowly, I came across the field of digital marketing. The idea of helping brands grow online, understanding audience behaviour, running ads, analysing data, and creating strategies felt exciting and powerful. It combined creativity, logic, and technology—all in one place.
My journey was not perfect. I had doubts. I faced confusion. I had days where I questioned if I was choosing the right path. But every time I opened my laptop to work on something digital, it felt natural. It felt like this is where I belong.
I started learning step-by-step. Each module, each assignment, and each project taught me something new. Whether it was SEO, social media ads, Google tools, content creation, or analytics, every part of digital marketing gave me more confidence. Slowly, I saw myself growing from a beginner with curiosity to someone who understands how the digital world works.
Today, at the age of 24, I am building my own path in the digital space. I am working, learning, experimenting, and improving. What started as a simple love for computer period in school has now become the foundation of my career.
This journey is not complete. I still have a lot to learn and many goals to achieve. But I am proud of where I started and how far I have come.
If there is one thing I have understood, it is this:
Sometimes your childhood interests quietly guide you toward your real career. You just need to pay attention.
My story is still being written, and I am excited for every new chapter that comes next.
