1. Yes, my background is in Computer Engineering. Have done Java, C/C++, VBA, bit of PHP, Python, etc. 2.I try to remain calm when under stressful situations and get excited when I solve difficult problems and that in turn helps me to keep going. 3. I consider myself pretty creative... but haven't had extensive experience with design/illustration background. I learned Adobe InDesign pretty thoroughly myself few years ago but haven't done it since then. I use Photoshop in and out to do image enhancements. 4. Adobe InDesign; took some time investment but the return was worth it. 5. Not only for the money... I am very interested in learning for my own sake because I love building things. And if the skills can help me make some money, why not?
