According to Amarachi, after she left her job at Multchoice, she did not achieve a breakthrough in drawing and painting as quickly as she wanted.
Amarachi said she had to return to her job after spending her savings.
She said:
“I eventually resigned after 7 months of working at Multichoice. I used my savings to buy art materials and kept the rest to feed myself while I ‘got better’ and started earning. I did sell some artwork, but honestly, I was still very hungry – like, proper hunger. After thinking about my life for a while, I swallowed my pride, called my team lead, explained everything, and asked if there was still a vacancy because I wanted to come back to work.
“Fortunately, two weeks after I called my team lead, she asked me to resume. So, I went back to Multichoice and continued the same routine for another year. But this time, when I resigned, it was for good – and for tech.”
After her second resignation, Amarachi did not go back to Multichoice again. She stuck to tech.
She said:
“I moved back in with my parents, (still with them), drank garri daily, and honestly, I looked homeless. I didn’t visit anyone or go out much. It was a really tough time – my phone got stolen, my mum fell sick, and my savings? Gone. But during that period, I took design seriously, put in the work, and now, it’s paying off.”
