"I started at Disney in 2011 with an eight-month internship as a cast member. My end goal was to go back after finishing my degree and rise through the company's ranks."
"I was dedicated to Disney, and I rose through the ranks into a senior manager position in an HR-type role. In 2020, I got furloughed when the park closed during the pandemic, and I decided to fill my time freelancing for fun on Fiverr. Within a year, my earnings on Fiverr began exceeding what I made monthly at Disney. When I left Disney, my salary was over $60,000. So far in 2025, I've made a net of over $100,000, and overall, I've made more than $900,000 on Fiverr since 2020."
