Looking forward to seeing some interesting jobs I haven't really thought about. Bonus points if it's an IT job.

If you learn graphic design and are good with IT then there's a lot of small companies that need an 'everything guy'.

You see them advertised as graphic design jobs but with executives assistant responsibilities in the descriptions.

UX / UI work lends itself to designers with IT skills in a similar way. I ended up falling into Business Analysis ultimately, but graphic design experience mixed with IT skills have helped immeasurably throughout the twisting path my career took.

Graphic Design skills are low key some of the most valuable in any field.
