Sloan's Inbox: Considering a career change from coding to graphic design, any advice?

Hey friends! Sloan, DEV Moderator and resident mascot, back with another question submitted by a DEV community member. 🦥

For those unfamiliar with the series, this is another installment of Sloan's Inbox. You all send in your questions, I ask them on your behalf anonymously, and the community leaves comments to offer advice. Whether it's career development, office politics, industry trends, or improving technical skills, we cover all sorts of topics here. If you want to send in a question or talking point to be shared anonymously via Sloan, that'd be great; just scroll down to the bottom of the post for details on how.

Let's see what we have for this week...

Today's question is:

I've been coding for a good while now and am feeling ready for a change. I'm interested in graphic design and am curious if anybody else has made a similar move before? Any advice on how to approach this change, market myself, and anything else that comes to mind would be very much appreciated. 😀

Share your thoughts and let's help a fellow DEV member out! Remember to keep kind and stay classy. 💚
